Possibility of unnecessary remapped object

Hi,

I saw that in the Interpreter>>#lookupMethodInClass:  some temp is  
push in the remmappable stack:

                        ....
                        "MethodDict pointer is nil (hopefully due a swapped out stub)
                                -- raise exception #cannotInterpret:."
                        self pushRemappableOop: currentClass.  "may cause GC!"
                        self createActualMessageTo: class.
                        currentClass := self popRemappableOop.
                        ....

But it seems not necessary since the #createActualMessage take care of  
it?
