- * freeze/thaw
-   * The code in src/pmc_freeze.c pokes deep into the guts of the STRING structure, without using any kind of API, hindering any kind of refactoring or cleanup of STRING internals.
-   * It also relies on implementation details of the io subsystem, such that altering seemingly unrelated io functions can cause segfaults or misbehavior of the freeze/thaw code. This is often related to the string poking.
-   * The code and comments in this subsystem give the impression of being a exploratory prototype or following an incomplete specification. For example, the main data structure in the freeze/thaw process (IMAGE_IO) claims to be a "stand-in for some kind of serializer PMC which will eventually be written".
-   * There are hints in the documentation that the current implementation dates as far back as 2003, with comments that some parts of it "might go away sometime".

  * CLI argument parsing
    * The current code is closely tied to imcc and will inhibit the eventual migration to pirc.
