 The first 16 heap addresses (`0-15`) are reserved when using the stdlib.

+Within that reservation, heap[0] is used by `random` and heap[15] is used

-# Slurp and Spew #
-
-The stdlib uses heap[1] to heap[15] as registers.
-
-The `slurpreg` and `spewreg` functions facilitate this by `spew`ing the stack
-onto the heap's pseudo-registers or `slurp`ing the pseudo-registers back to the
-stack.  The functions preserve order in complementary fashion.
-
-The `spewreg` function uses `heap[0]` for storage.
