[Glass] Spurious 'You can only #call: and #answer: from within a callback or a Task.'?

We have a single specific callback that causes the spurious error message
'You can only #call: and #answer: from within a callback or a Task.'

The offending call: occurs within a polymorphically overidden method. The
implementation on one class works, another doesn't; both called from the
same code and the same callback.

I captured the stacktrace from both the working and failing case.

The error message is generated because GRGemStonePlatform>>callbackMarker
scans the stack for a receiver that isKindOf: WACallback, and fails to.

In the working case, the stack looks like this (edited for brevity, full
stacks attached):

In other words, at frame 13 line 10 of WACallbackRegistry>>handle:
WACallback>>evaluateWithFieldValues was called on aWAActionCallback, and
it appears on the stack, as GRGemStonePlatform>>callbackMarker expects.

In the failing case, the stack looks like this:

---

7 RoleList >> add (envId 0) @6 line 4
8 GRDelayedSendMessage >> basicPerformFor:withArguments: (envId 0) @6 line 3

In other words, from the exact same step-point in
WACallbackRegistry>>handle: aWAActionCallback was called again, and yet it
does not appear on the stack this time.

Is this maybe a symptom of the inside of
WACallback>>evaluateWithFieldValues being optimized away so it does not
appear on the stack? Maybe by the native code JIT?
