 Replying to [comment:16 Util]:
 > Two basic functions of Packfile PMCs are non-functional:
 >     1. Starting with a basic hello_world.pbc, loading it into memory
 with Packfile PMCs, then just writing it back to disk, results in a non-
 runnable .pbc file.

 It's... weird. I'm pretty sure that I tested this behavior.

 >     2. A basic hello_world.pbc cannot be constructed from scratch by
 just using Packfile PMCs within a PIR program.

 Yes. But it's not Packfile's fault. We need way to construct Sub in PIR.
 Almost all preparations of it are done. We just need to implement
 Sub.init_pmc which will accept Hash with field values and construct Sub
 without attaching to current Interp.
