[stringtemplate-interest] pushed another ST4 build

[Terence Parr]

Nope, just an array;

t(x,y) ::= "<x><y>"

generates

load_local 0
write
load_local 1
write

The compiler translates id to int.  For dynamic scoping look up, it  
keeps a hashtable but in the template def object not the ST itself.  
then you can do

locals[impl.formalArgs.get(id).index]

to get value if you only have a name.

This saves a hashtable per ST :)  memory and gc overhead savings
