	ChangeLog 
Log Message:
	* generic/tcl.h (comments):
	* generic/tclCmdIL.c:
	* generic/tclCompile.c:
	* generic/tclExecute.c:
	* generic/tclInt.h:
	* generic/tclNamesp.c:
	* generic/tclProc.c:
	* generic/tclVar.c: First part of variable reform. Change Var
	struct so that sizeof(Var)==sizeof(Tcl_Obj), and use the special
	obj allocator for vars. The Var struct has been reduced from
	(2ints+6ptrs) to (2ints+4ptrs).

	*** COMPAT: breaks both binary and (trivially) source compat for
	extensions that access the Var struct.
	
	* generic/tclCompile.c (optimiser):
	* generic/tclExecute.c: storing pointers to literals instead of
	offsets into the literal table for INST_PUSH. This is currently
	implemented using NASTY CASTS (ptr->TclPSizedInt->ptr) [not used
	when VM_USE_PACKED]
	*** REQUIRES CLEANING: use a union for opnd, instead of casting.
