 * Method
 *
 * Methods are added, conceptually, to Genfuns, not to objects
 * themselves, although the Genfun object does not have any pointers to
 * method objects.
 *
 * The _rank vector is an internal datastructure used during dispatch
 * to figure out whether a method is applicable, and if so, how to
 * order multiple discovered methods.
 *
 * Right now, the score method on Method does not take into account any
 * ordering, and all arguments to a method are ranked equally for the
 * sake of ordering.
