    Contexts represent the stack frame objects, which keep the processing

    state of a method or block (i.e. its local variables, temporaries etc.)

    Every message send adds a context to a chain, which can be traced back via

    the sender field. The context of the currently active method is always

    accessable via the pseuodoVariable called 'thisContext'.

    For both method- and block-contexts, the layout is the same.

    For method contexts, the home-field is nil, while for block contexts the home-

    field is either the context of its surrounding block (i.e. the context of the

    block, in which the receiving block was created, if its a nested block) or of

    its home method.

    LineNumbers vs. program counter:

    Due to the compilation to machine code, methods and/or block do not

    always (actually: do seldom) contain bytecodes. Thus, there is no such concept

    as a bytecode p-counter. To support debugging, the linenumber within the

    original source is instead remembered when a send or loop entry is performed.

    Since linenumbers are not always sufficient for debugging (multiple sends in one

    line), this may be changed in future versions to a character offset, giving

    the position of the selector in the source.

    Restartable / Returnable contexts:

    In previous versions (up to ST/X 2.10.5), every method stored enough

    information in the context for that one to be restartable later (for example,

    In practice, this was reported to be not a severe limitation and all users were happy

    to trade the increased performance for that slight inconvenience.

    (during development, this is seldom a problem, since interpreted methods are always

     returnable and restartable)

    Resuming contexts:

    Thus, resume of a context is implemented by forcing a return from the context

    which was created by the method called from the first one. The effect is the same.

    Returning from a dead method:

    is now rewarded by an invalidReturn exception - it used to be a noop in previous

                                            locals and temporaries.

        sender      <Context>               the 'calling / sending' context

                                            This is not directly accessable, since it may

                                            be a lazy context (i.e. an empty frame).

                                            The #sender method cares for this.

        home        <Context>               the context, where this block was

                                            created, or nil if its a method context

                                            There are also cheap blocks, which do

                                            not need a reference to the home context,

                                            for those, its nil too.

        receiver    <Object>                the receiver of this message

        selector    <Symbol>                the selector of this message

                                            (for super sends) or nil, for regular sends.

        lineNr      <SmallInteger>          the position where the context left off

                                            (kind of p-counter). Only the low 16bits

                                             are valid.

                                            to return ('^') from a method context

                                            which itself has already returned

                                            (i.e. there is no place to return to)
