//: So far we have local variables, and we can nest local variables of short
//: lifetimes inside longer ones. Now let's support 'global' variables that
//: last for the life of a routine. If we create multiple routines they won't
//: have access to each other's globals.
//:
//: This feature is still experimental and half-baked. You can't name global
//: variables, and so like in most tests they don't get checked for types (the
//: only known hole in the type system, can cause memory corruption). We might
//: fix these issues if we ever use globals. Or we might just drop the feature
//: entirely.
