Renaming classes which have class variables in the browser

Affected area
Browser
Description
When a class is renamed, its class variables are renamed to reflect the change. (in ST/X, class variables are stored in the global variable table with a special name of: "className:varName").
However, interpreted code still references class variables by the old name.
Workaround
reaccept methods which access class variables after the rename.
