It's using shared libraries to do so. Each new deck/stmt/expr is 
compiled in a shared library. This library imports and links 
against all previous libraries to make the context available.
I still need to implement a few rewrites, i.e. `auto var = val;` 
should become `typeof(val) var; shared static this() { var = val; 
}` too support runtime initialization.
