If you look again at the bit you snipped, the implementation I
suggested should be totally language-independent (in the
language-independent parts of the compiler).
Yes, the *implementation* is, but the *definition* is not, so that when
people are looking at a tree, they can't know whether it's valid or not
without knowlege of the language in question and I think that's a bad idea.
