Yeah.  When I wrote my note I meant to mention a couple of other things,
and then forgot to.  Class-ifying value more completely was one of them.
Another one would be to do a bigger transform from "struct value *" to
"value_ref_ptr" (and "const value_ref_ptr &") everywhere, to try to
reduce the number of inc/dec-ref calls to a bare minimum, maybe even zero.

I'm not sure if I'll attempt those, since I have other maintenance
cleanups in mind as well.
