This doesn't work because we need to be able to tear off block scopes on

in the codeblock.
Sounds sensible. It might help to keep this at a fixed location, save having to look up the register number every time. We may be able to ensure this is always the first register allocated, if needed, & always in local 0? Just a thought.
