Then, it's probably likewise not true for any other random address
in block. And then, the only reliable way to identify a block is via
its address.
What I'm trying to do is make -stack-list-variables output block
together with a name of variable, and make -var-create accept
some block specification. This, together, should all to display
shadowed variables in frontend. Looks like 'block' should be
the string rendition of the address of struct block :-/
