As I write more PIR by hand...

*) The function call version of function calls is unprototyped, which
is fine (well, OK, I'd prefer it to be prototyped), but it doesn't
coerce its parameters to be PMCs. So "foo(10, 20)" pushes two
integers, rather than two PMCs, into the overflow array.

*) Args go into the overflow array before the PMC registers are
filled. Not quite right, registers first

*) You can't .pcc_call a sub you've declared with .sub -- you have to
create a sub PMC for it. (Though you *can* call a .sub by name with
the function call syntax)
