is it same compiled methods?
Because it is absolutely normal if they using different source pointer.

I didn't understand your question. Yes, it is exactly the same CompiledMethod.
Look, if I do:

(CompiledMethod allInstances select:� [:each | each trailer kind = #VarLengthSourcePointer] ) first

I get
---> (CodeLoader class>>#initialize "a CompiledMethod(311951360)")

So...it means that such CompiledMethod answers #VarLengthSourcePointer when send "trailer kind". Ok?

But immediatly after, if I ask the trailer kind to the SAME compiled method:

(CodeLoader class >> #initialize) trailer kind

I get
----> #SourcePointer

WHYYY??� why it is answering #SourcePointer instead of #VarLengthSourcePointer� ??
