           Summary: ParseAssemblyString does not allow allow already
                    existing names
           Product: libraries
           Version: trunk
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Target-Independent JIT
        AssignedTo: unassignedbugs at nondot.org
        ReportedBy: eric at vanrietpaap.nl


When working with the JIT it is sometimes necessary to recompile a new implementation of a function. I 
use ParseAssemblyString to feed new code into the JIT. However, Encountering an already defined function 
gives a parse error.

Could we have another ParseAssemblyString function (or with an additional parameter) that "does the right 
thing" (tm) so things like getNamedFunction, freeMachineCodeForFunction and  
recompileAndRelinkFunction can be used with expected results.
