Calls a method in a similar - fashion as :opcode:`CALL_METHOD`, but also supports keyword arguments. Works - in tandem with :opcode:`LOAD_METHOD`. +* Replaced the three call instructions: :opcode:`CALL_FUNCTION`, + :opcode:`CALL_FUNCTION_KW` and :opcode:`CALL_METHOD` with + :opcode:`CALL_NO_KW`, :opcode:`CALL_KW` and :opcode:`PRECALL_METHOD`. + This decouples the argument shifting for methods from the handling of + keyword arguments and allows better specialization of calls. * Removed ``COPY_DICT_WITHOUT_KEYS``.
