Technically, if you design the fast refs mapping so that even cell
references have to do an indirection through the fast locals array,
then you can put the name-to-fast-locals-offset mapping on the code
object. Mine doesn't do that though, it references the cells directly
instead.

I don't think it makes much difference in practice though, and I don't
like the idea of storing a lazily initialised cache on nominally
immutable code objects.

Cheers,
Nick.
