The NCI signature char 'I' used to be the Parrot Interpreter. It's now
'J'. This frees 'I' for its new and more consistent meaning INTVAL.

Classes that use the newer METHOD syntax don't need a change. Old code
that uses enter_nci_method() and uses an B<I>nterpreter argument should
be changed to use the new METHOD syntax.
