New description:

 lexicals can't be found in nested .subs.
 the following works in parrot, but the generated bytecode doesn't seem to
 work:


 {{{
 .sub main
  .lex "x", $P0
  $P0 = new "Integer"
  $P0 = 42
  foo()
 .end

 .sub foo :outer("main")
  $P0 = find_lex "x"
  print $P0
 .end
 }}}


 So, apparently, lexicals are not stored correctly.
 This needs fixing.
