Yeah, all your auxillary data; i.e. the flags you check for control flow, &c. should be int registers. Python ints should still probably be pmcs. > It's also using far more temporary variables than it needs. >Right > now I'm thinking that no matter how complicated the expression, it > really only needs two extra registers: the result and a temporary > variable, because all the operators are either unary or binary...

You mind submitting a patch to put this in the languages/pirate directory of the parrot distro? I'd like to stay up to date, and probably do some work (as, I imagine, would others).
