All it did was to make a list of the Procs generated by parsToProcs, so
parsToProcs may as well just do the same job itself.
The reason I'd made it a separate pass originally was that I wanted to
optimise out the wrapper when the child of a Par was already a ProcCall.
That optimisation isn't going to be possible any more with the new CCSP,
since wrappers have to fetch their arguments in a different way from
ordinary Procs.
Previously, assignments of records were directly flattened into assignment of each of the fields. Now, we instead generate a copy_<recordname> inline procedure for each record definition, and compile code that uses that (for C++, we could even make this an operator= implementation later on). This allows us to re-use the proc later in the C/C++ backends if needed.
This patch is actually an amalgam of multiple (already large) patches. Those patches conflicted (parameterised Structured vs. changes to usage checking and FlowGraph) and encountered a nasty bug in darcs 1 involving exponential time (see http://wiki.darcs.net/DarcsWiki/ConflictsFAQ for more details). Reasoning that half an hour (of 100% CPU use) was too long to apply patches, I opted to re-record the parameterised Structured changes as this new large patch. Here are the commit messages originally used for the patches (which, as mentioned, were already large patches):
A gigantic patch switching all the non-test modules over to using parameterised A.Structured
Changed the FlowGraph module again to handle any sort of Structured you want to pass to it (mainly for testing)
A further gigantic patch changing all the tests to work with the new parameterised Structured
Fixed a nasty bug involving functions being named incorrectly inside transformInputCase
Added a hand-written instance of Data for Structured that allows us to use ext1M properly
Fixed a few warnings in the code
