You may perhaps also want to check the attachment from Mantis #7311 that I  
created a minute ago:

- http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7311

This .st has 61 tests which I've written for Marcus' NewCompiler project  
(testing sourceCode -> Parser -> nodes -> compiled method ->  
InstructionStream). Made a small change for adapting them to your passing  
EncoderForV3 to the parser. BTW: all green in the recent  
Squeak-3.10.2-Closures.image ;)

There's perhaps more to come, did a buch of tests for Igor's parser for  
Moebius, mainly around syntax constructs. Adapting them may need some  
effort+time, they depend on accurate reporting of source code position.
