To-do tests for method/isa/overload updates and overloading

Changes to methods, @ISA, or overload settings should affect objects
that are already blessed into the class.

Currently, objects that existed before any overload settings were in
place do not do overloading at all (bug #112708).  Objects that were
blessed when overload settings were in place are not affected by
changes to methods or @ISA until another object is blessed into the
same class.
