I was trying to figure out what the "parameter relations" are of
SETTABLE, GETDOTTED and GETINDEXED (see also answer to next question).

ah.. that explains a lot :) .. thus globals are indexed by their
"stringname" and that "stringname" is stored seperately for every
function (and thus the "index" is different between functions). Does
GETDOTTED work the same way?
