        Variable_Method_Caller

A class for finding a construction variable on the stack and calling one of its methods.

We use this to support "construction variables" in our string eval()s that actually stand in for methods--specifically, use of "RDirs" in call to _concat that should actually execute the "TARGET.RDirs" method. (We used to support this by creating a little "build dictionary" that mapped RDirs to the method, but this got in the way of Memoizing construction environments, because we had to create new environment objects to hold the variables.)
