Q: Should Op names be allowed to be identifiers.

[Klaas-Jan Stol]

hi,

In PIR, it's allowed to use ops as names for variables. For instance, 
it's allowed to write:

.sub main
 .local pmc inc
.end

However, when trying to increment your variable 'inc', you could write

.sub main
 .local pmc inc
 inc inc
.end

which not only looks strange, but will not even compile. The error 
message is:

error:imcc:syntax error, unexpected VAR, expecting '('
       in file 'kw.pir' line 6

This issue was discussed in ticket 37148 ([TODO] IMCC -improve error 
messages)

Now, wouldn't it be a good idea to disallow the use of opnames as 
identifiers altogether?
(although having your own custom ops with dyn. op. libs around may be a 
problem)
