+/* When the receiver of a method invocation is nil, the runtime
+ returns nil_method() as the method implementation. This function
+ will be casted to whatever function was supposed to be executed to
+ execute that method (that function will take an id, followed by a
+ SEL, followed by who knows what arguments, depends on the method),
+ and executed.
+
+ For this reason, nil_method() should be a function which can be
+ called in place of any function taking an 'id' argument followed by
+ a 'SEL' argument, followed by zero, or one, or any number of
+ arguments (both a fixed number, or a variable number !).
+
+ There is no "proper" implementation of such a nil_method function
+ in C, however in all existing implementations it does not matter
+ when extra arguments are present, so we can simply create a function
+ taking a receiver and a selector, and all other arguments will be
+ ignored. :-)
