I'm pretty sure that there's a one-to-one correspondence between Baf and 
bytecode. One Baf instruction may have 5 bytecode equivalents (e.g. 
store -> astore, istore, etc), but should only generate one bytecode 
instruction. Check the bytecode generation code to find out (always a 
good strategy!)
