Torsten Rüger d6c38d15ba Fix calling unknown methods
Before, when the type was determined, it was assumed that the method can be resolved. But off course tis is not true, as methods may be defined later in the file.
Two solutions for that. One could  (and should) define all methods and only then start to compile. Thus having the type safety.
Or (as now) make a dynamic call and let it fail at runtime.

# Sending in a dynamic language is off course not as simple as just calling.
# The function that needs to be called depends after all on the receiver,
# and no guarantees can be made on what that is.
#
# It helps to know that usually (>99%) the class of the receiver does not change.
# Our stategy then is to cache the functions and only dynamically determine it in
# case of a miss (the 1%, and first invocation)
#
# As cache key we must use the type of the object (which is the first word of _every_ object)
# as that is constant, and function implementations depend on the type (not class)
