Okay, we're starting to dig in, and I've hit a question that will no
doubt seem strange.
Context: BitC is a polymorphic language. Since it has unboxed value
types, our approach to compiling a polymorphic function is to
polyinstantate it -- once for each signature.
The name mangling scheme is both stable and reversible. At the site of
the use occurrence, we can fully determine the mangled
