1209,parrot -O Fails Tests,dukeleto,chromatic,"Currently we can't run Parrot with certain IMCC optimizations (by setting
TEST_PROG_ARGS, for example, or hacking t/harness because the optimization
somehow removes useful context information printed in the Parrot backtrace.

$ ./parrot -O t/compilers/imcc/syn/const_24.pir
Null PMC access in get_string()

$ ./parrot t/compilers/imcc/syn/const_24.pir
Null PMC access in get_string()
current instr.: 'main' pc 5 (t/compilers/imcc/syn/const_24.pir:11)

The difference lies somewhere in Parrot_Context_get_info(), I believe.

I don't have the time or capacity to track this down tonight; I was tracking
down a potential bug in the IMCC optimizer and thought it would be nice to
see if any tests fail with optimizations.
