 * The base class for the function dispatch object.
 * The function dispatch object wraps a member function pointer and the
 * execute call then calls the member function pointer using the objectptr as
 * the object, and the remaining arguments are deserialized from the iarchive.
 * The result of the call are serialized in the response archive.
 *
 * The restrictions are the the function call must not take any
 * arguments by reference.
