  29  * By popular demand, we define a struct to represent an expression.
  30  * This will no doubt mutate as expressions become baroque.
  31  *
  32  * Currently, we support expressions like "foo-bar+42".
  33  * In other words we permit a (possibly undefined) minuend, a
  34  * (possibly undefined) subtrahend and an (absolute) augend.
  35  * RMS says this is so we can have 1-pass assembly for any compiler
  36  * emmissions, and a 'case' statement might emit 'undefined1 - undefined2'.
  37  *
  38  * To simplify table-driven dispatch, we also have a "segment" for the
  39  * entire expression. That way we don't require complex reasoning about
  40  * whether particular components are defined; and we can change component
  41  * semantics without re-working all the dispatch tables in the assembler.
  42  * In other words the "type" of an expression is its segment.
