No, of course not. I said "instruction" because that's how I saw it
implemented last, but that was in a compiler backend, not in a virtual

I have a suggestion for allowing parrot implementations to execute
code more efficiently. Add an "instruction" or other annotation which
denotes what registers are "live" at some point in the code. The
intended usage is that compilers which wish to generate this
information generate
