I made up the :method-invocation-order flag.  The original order turned 
out to be broken for multiple inheritance, but some programs depended on 
it.  As such, I added this option when I changed the invocation order to 
something that made more sense in that case.  Later it was convenient in 
that Jan Moringen was able to add another invocation order that is even 
better.
