        Due to a bug in ciTypeFlow, invokedynamic call sites deoptimize unexpectedly.

        The problem was observed by a customer:

        I did some simple micro-benchmarking with the current implementation
        of invokedynamic. In the attached test class, I call a method
        "greeter" 100,000,000 times using invokedynamic and then using
        reflection. Reflection only takes about 1338ms, while invokedynamic
        takes about 12099. (This was taken on OSX 10.6, with build
        "1.7.0-internal-stephen_2010_05_28_19_48-b00"). By the way
        invokedynamic works, I had expected it to be at least as fast as a
        reflective call.
