The patch doesn't apply clean anymore, the code looks changed enough!

there is no objc_test_class_flag(class, objc_class_flag_new_abi) 
anymore? Where should I call objc_test_class_flag(class, 
objc_class_flag_new_abi)) now? please check and perhaps update the patch 
to your changes, so I can test it.
