This fixes another small inefficiency in the Objective-C compiler.

When a method invocation is found, and the parser calls objc_build_method_expr()
to compile it, it used to invoke it as in

  objc_build_message_expr (build_tree_list (rec, args));

this (trivial) patch removes the need to create the temporary tree list, so that
the call becomes

  objc_build_message_expr (rec, args);

it's also easier to understand, not just more efficient.

The speedup is tiny, as it saves just one allocation per method invocation.  It's
more about cleaning up the codebase and migrating it from Lisp to C.

Ok to commit ?

Thanks

You do know that we are reimplementing gcc in lisp, right?   ^L  It's a joke, just a joke.

Ok.
