A small correction. A new method declared as described above does show
in the methods hash. It also has a corresponding link from the
namespace hash to the new method. Something like this: -

<snip>
    "methods" => Hash {
        "mysub" => PMC 'Sub' { ... }
    },
    "namespace" => NameSpace {
        "mysub" => \VAR1["methods"]["mysub"]
    },
</snip>

This seems to suggest to me that methods are inherited from a base PMC
but vtables aren't. Perhaps different find_method subs are being
called for vtables and methods if find_method is used to find vtables.
