Summary: assemble.test leaks 

Initial Comment:
Running assemble.test under valgrind shows very many leaks - 107 different stack traces of depth 10.

Attaching the full valgrind output and a summary of leaks, grouped by identical stack traces.

Message:
That should be a bunch more; definitely not cleared all of them though, as
some are coupled in ways I don't yet grok.

Message:
Was due to GetNextOperand doing Tcl_Obj allocation yet some callers of it
already holding a reference to a Tcl_Obj in the out parameter. Oops!

Please recheck, but I think that's the issue squelched.
