Okay, the method Behavior>>compiledMethodAt:environmentId:otherwise: 
appears to be the culprit in all of these errors ... there are quite a 
few of the higher level methods that pass through 
Behavior>>compiledMethodAt:environmentId:otherwise: and 
Behavior>>compiledMethodAt:environmentId:otherwise: ignores methods that 
are installed in the session method dictionary and that is leading to 
the rash of lookup errors as the code is looking in the wrong place ...

This problem has been around for a while, but in tODE I rarely/never add 
methods to system classes without creating a protocol starting with * 
first and then crate the method in that protocol (new method menu item) 
--- and that combo works ... My suggested patch solved one problem but 
there appear to be quite a few potential problems. I am quite busy with 
3.4 work at the moment and do not have the time to properly fix all of 
the problems ...

Sooo, I think that if you can create a protocol starting with a * and 
add create your method in that protocol, then you should be good to go 
... I was able to take my experimental method from yesterday that was n 
a non-* protocol and re-create it in a * protocol, so this should get 
you out of the woods ...

If you are still having troubld, I will try to give you instructions 
about cleaning up your method dictionaries...
