 <p>A slot number is simply an unsigned 32-bit integer encoded in the variable

 low slot numbers are encoded in one byte. Through various bits of magic LLVM
 attempts to always keep the slot numbers low. The first attempt is to associate
-slot numbers with their "type plane". That is, Values of the same type are 
-written to the bytecode file in a list (sequentially). Their order in that list

+(maximum 31 block types) and 27 bits for the block size (max
