It is AA and it stores pointers, not references.

P.S. There can be found a lot of solutions but they will all do 
some kind of adding extra run time information, be it "if" chain 
or AA map. Local variable names exist only during compilation, in 
compiled binary those are just stack offsets so can't possibly 
find one based on run time value without that extra info.
