Complete PIRC to a point where it can replace IMCC (though it won't be default until after 1.4 or 2.0).

From a discussion with kjs today on IRC:

<kj> the byte code generator module is buggy I think. The second major thing that needs fixing is to store all strings as STRING *, not char *
<kj> yes i saw it's pushed back
<kj> now, I would hope that fixing the char * -> STRING * stuff solves the bytecode generator
<kj> but I'm afraid it's not that easy
<kj> so the 2 major things to fix are the byte code generator and the char * to STRING conversion
<kj> i think the second, the STRING stuff should be done first
<kj> then, *perhaps*, the bytecode stuff is fixed, but that's only a wild guess. The problem with the byte code gen is that there's some segfaulting going on as FLOATs and STRING constnats are not stored properly

This milestone has slipped twice and this task is no longer on our radar.
