Note also that the classfile API supports an higher-level construct to access 
method parameters, which supports _logical_ indexes (see 
CodeBuilder::parameterSlot). This would make the indices more robust against 
changes in types (e.g. int vs. long, where the latter would require two local 
variable slots)
