        The oop iteration code currently contains a few GC specific object visitors, one of those is oop_ms_follow_contents. The generic oop_oop_iterate visitors does more or less the same as the specialized mark sweep version and by adding some more functionallity to the Devirtualizer and use it in the oop_oop_iterate methods it is possible to get rid of oop_ms_follow_contents.
