That's not the intention.  What we need is some effort to integrate the
ContextInterpreter back into VMMaker.oscog.  David doesn't have the time.
The Interpreter in VMMaker.oscog is both ahead and behind the VMMaker
Interpreter.  The VMMaker.oscog one has Andreas' profiler improvements, but
it hasn't been refactored to not inherit from ObjectMemory and and fixes
that have been applied to VMMaker's Interpreter could do with being
integrated.  But it's not a hinge join, just not one I or David have time
for.  Is there anyone out there with curiosity for the VM who does have
some time?

Tobias, any students you can point at the task?  It's a refactoring job and
I'll hand hold.
