Nice bit of "just in time" here as I will soon be using this stuff for 
watchpoints (ie translating a variable to a location, or locations).

Apart from the output code, and parsing code in fhpd, is the "get the 
location" code placed in a utility class somewhere? Can you give a 
programming example of given variable foo, how to get a location or 
locations in memory of where it resides?
