Something like that, yep. (Though string eval won't fire off an assembler)
What'd be really nice, though probably a bad idea for the test suite, was
if the test program could run multiple tests sequentially without having to
exit after each one. Like:
create interpreter
load bytecode for interpreter
execute bytecode in interpreter
destroy interpreter
over and over. Certainly be a good test of the GC system. :)
