Very big code results in too many locals #285

Like ahc, but really, anything big enough will get you above the local limit.

This is one of those ones I really don't know how to solve in a sensible way. Obviously we should be re-using locals inside functions, but some of this happens at the top level which makes things much harder.

Count all the locals that happen at top-level, shove them in a locals table instead, or even make them globals after the limit?
