 <p>There are also some changes
 in the runtime behavior of code generated by the 1.1
 compiler which might warrant rewriting code.  For information
 on that behavior and on the new features of the 1.1 language,

+The <code>call(..)</code> pointcut designator is now implemented

+could be implemented.  This is not true for 1.1.  To fix this,
