It occurs to me that one minor consequence of the
vtables-contain-descriptors-not-pointers is that the (sometimes)
useful extension of getting a function pointer given a
pointer-to-member function is no longer implementable, if you're
expecting two pointers to the same function to have the same value.

I don't think this really matters, but it's worth noting.
