Right. resolve_qualified_expression_name iterates through each element 
in a WFL, setting the from_super flag if it sees a "super.". But in the 
case of a "super" qualified method call it forgets to clear the flag 
before it is done, so in the case of:
super.getX().getY()
the getY() is treated as if it were a "super" call also, and is emitted 
as a non-virtual call when it should not be.
The patch below fixes the problem. I'm testing it now. OK to commit 
assuming no problems?
regards
Bryce.
