seems to be to have the embedding interface set the top of stack in

No. I've posted already this example:
{ PMC *some = pmc_new(...); { PMC *another = pmc_new(...); } // some may be dead here }
The braces denote stack frames.
No you have not, you have pasted something that has no relevance what so ever to what I am saying unless you give it some more verbosity.
Yes, I know this is the case which is why I have to do
{
a = pmc_new
register_pmc(a)
{
b = pmc_new
register_pmc(b)
}
a should still be alive here
}By leaving out the needed function you do not convey any response to my proposal that parrot embedding functions that detect that no stacktop to be set to set them before calling onwards into parrot. Yes, if no stacktop is set in my code I need to carefully use regster_pmc, but I know that already and it is something I agree to do.
