Comment(by whiteknight):
From a discussion with kjs today on IRC:
{{{
<kj> the byte code generator module is buggy I think. The second major
thing that needs fixing is to store all strings as STRING *, not char *
<kj> yes i saw it's pushed back
<kj> now, I would hope that fixing the char * -> STRING * stuff solves the
bytecode generator
<kj> but I'm afraid it's not that easy
<kj> so the 2 major things to fix are the byte code generator and the char
* to STRING conversion
<kj> i think the second, the STRING stuff should be done first
<kj> then, *perhaps*, the bytecode stuff is fixed, but that's only a wild
guess. The problem with the byte code gen is that there's some segfaulting
going on as FLOATs and STRING constnats are not stored properly
