A running list of bugs encountered on the way to pldi

[eschkufz]

Overview

1. ~Hierarchical references in named connection bindings cause an error:~

   Foo f(.clk(clock.val));

2. ~For loops with identical iterator variables cause crashes:~

   integer i;
   for (i = 0; i < 2; i=i+1) ...
   for (i = 0; i < 2; i=i+1) ...

3. ~namespace nesting for targets has bitrotted~
4. ~16x16 nw benchmark uses 8x8 dataset~
5. ~Many instances of 32 bit assumption still hard-coded in avmm backend~
6. ~Building cascade as a library requires linking against libcascade and libverilog.~
7. ~Many instances of path resolution are not correctly using the -I flag.~
8. ~Errors in state machine transformation for programs with complex nestings of if/thens and case statements.~
9. ~Errors in state machine generation for mix of always @() blocks (posedge clock vs posedge clock or posedge reset)~
