Hello,
This reminds me of a related but distinct issue - region-based allocation.
Hypothetically, you could use regions to implement a limited form of this

Hi,
A few points:
1. I really, really think that it is a bad idea for the type of a variable
to change depending on how it is used (i.e. set! vs. set~). That means that
you should remove points 12 and 14, and maybe some other points.
2. You shouldn't specify the semantics in terms of code, but
I agree. Do you have any idea what's causing the overhead?

I have been working on understanding RTL, and I wrote the following

RTL, but they also serve to test it. Any objections if I commit them

I haven't looked at the RTL program structure, but adding a new field
is basically what I did with the non-RTL program structure when I
worked on JIT there.
However, in that case we could still keep everything under 4 words. I
don't know if that will work here.

That sounds interesting, but I have a question - why not make the MVRA
return address immediately after the call, instead of immediately
before it? In the common case when returning to the regular return
address, that would eliminate the extra branch (although it's a very
small branch anyway).

I'm trying to understand the call instruction in RTL, and having some
