  [abc]  Fix issue with accessing a variable named 'abc' (TT #161 / GH #178)

Previously, all variables were being stored in the 'abc' hll root namespace,
but this namespace also contained entries for parts of the compiler itself.
Therefore, requesting 'abc' as a variable would return a namespace instead
of null/zero.

I fixed the problem by creating a special abc::vars namespace for holding
all variables (and only variables).

This patch also tries to fix exponentiation by loading the 'trans_ops'
library, but for some reason that isn't working.  I'll file a new ticket
for that.
