Well, not entirely. This is just the first round. All I did is xstrdup
the input to parse_exp_1 and pass that *as is* to the subroutines. My
plan is to keep pushing this down as much as possible as an attempt to
get things going at least in a piecemeal/manageable way. YMMV.

I have a local branch here that I have modified the parsers and a bunch
of other stuff, too. That patch is already quadruple the size of the
this (as yet unsubmitted) patch. With that, there is still a phenomenal
amount of work to do, but I will keep plugging away at it as time permits.
