How do we create a Parrot_STRING in an extension? Parrot_Ints
and Parrot_Floats are easy, since they're just declarations, and
for PMCs there's Parrot_PMC_new, but there doesn't appear to be
an equivalent for strings.

The problem with this approach is the JIT/EXEC subsystem. Dynamically
loaded oplibs and JIT don't play together. To make this work, it would

Done. op2pm.pl now has the renumbering. Its simpler and cleaner.
Now, that 1237 opcodes are fixed numbered, shall we remove the

Hey folks.
It's that time of year again, when the patch pumpkin passes paws. Hands,

What, if any, validation of their input should the register access
functions in the extension API do? Currently, they don't do any,
which means that you can create a buffer overflow simply by using
a register number >31 or <0; eg,
Parrot_set_intreg(interpreter, 1, 100);
