That's an issue if we don't have declared return value lists. If we do, we
can do it implicitly--the first five string returns are in S0-S4, the first
four integers in I1-I4, the first five PMCs in P0-P4, and the first five
floats in N0-N4.
Without return value lists, I think we're going to have to either push 'em
on a stack, or return a single list PMC with the returns. The only problem
with a list is that you can only put PMCs in 'em, which won't work too well
for those cases when you don't need a full PMC.
