Class MethodContext implements the "method" message and the tempAt: and
tempAt:put: messages, which lets you learn the method of a context and 
change the temporaries in the context.  To learn the names of the
temporaries of a method, you have to get the source code with "getSource"
and then extract the temporary names, which will be the first substring
deliminated by a pair of |s.  The class of methods is CompiledMethod.
