Things to improve in the Swift ABI
Raw
gistfile1.txt
1. The ABI for allocating initializers is messed up. We preserve the metadata in swiftself, forcing a lot of re-use. Ideally the metadata would be passed in (maybe in the swiftself register?) and we'd return the object in swiftself.
2. We should have a swift_allocObject that knows it's been given a class metadata and pulls the dimensions out of it.
