Can't we rely on the C library to give us equivalents?

Not likely worth the effort.  And it'd be better to somehow mark 
jit_error such that anytime a path unconditionally calls jit_error, the 
whole path is considered unlikely.

I think it was Ball & Larus that had a predictor of this nature, I don't 
recall its effectiveness offhand.  But I'd rather be marking the 
function than sprinlkling unlikely all over the actual codepaths.

All function definitions should have a block comment describing the 
function and its arguments.   This comment applies throughout the code 
and needs to be addressed prior to commit.  In fact I really can't even 
continue review of this code due to the lack of comments -- I rely 
heavily on them.
