=head1 NAME

compilers/imcc/pbc.c

=head1 DESCRIPTION

emit imcc instructions into Parrot interpreter

the e_pbc_emit function is called per instruction

Notes:

I'm using existing data structures here (SymReg *) to store
various global items (currently only PMC constants).
The index in the constant table is in SymReg * ->color
data member. This looks odd, but the register number
from imc.c:allocate is also there for variables,
so it's a little bit consistent at least.

So when reading color here it's either a constant table index
or a Parrot register number, depending on data type.
