 Compiler Features:
  * Inline Assembly: Improve error messages around invalid function argument count.
+ * Code Generator: Use codecopy for string constants more aggressively.
  * Code Generator: Use binary search for dispatch function if more efficient. The size/speed tradeoff can be tuned using ``--optimize-runs``.
  * Type Checker: Add an additional reason to be displayed when type conversion fails.
