To be honest, I didn't even know that we did this. [The register code is 
some of the oldest code in insight.] Passing host memory addresses into 
the interpreter and back again as a string is just plain evil.

The C code should create a map/hashtable and store the pointers to the 
types itself; then pass a string representation of the key into the 
interpreter.

But for now, if your suggestion works (Roland will hopefully verify), 
then I say we go with that for the time being.

Thank you!
