The VM can now evaluate a comptime type-fn that allocates at lowering time (the
0141 family) — the legacy interp cannot. Four changes:
- runComptimeTypeFunc (lower/comptime.zig): force the CAllocator->Allocator thunks
to exist (getOrCreateThunks, idempotent, guarded) BEFORE eval. A type-fn const
runs at scanDecls (Pass 1), before Pass 1c builds the default-context global +
thunks, so the comptime allocator was otherwise null.
- materializeDefaultContext: build a REAL context at lowering time when the global
is absent — find the two thunks by name and lay their func-refs into the inline
Allocator value at the head of Context, so context.allocator.alloc_bytes
dispatches call_indirect -> thunk -> native VM malloc.
- aggType: deref a pointer base_type (the List write path emits struct_gep with
base_type = *Struct; fieldOffset panicked on the pointer — now derefs, no panic).
- subslice: handle a [*]T many-pointer / *T base (a List's items field — the base
IS the data pointer).
Verified end-to-end (manual probe): a compiler-API type-fn building its []Member in
a List(Member) runs HANDLED on the VM and mints (green=7) — the 0141 List-growth
pattern. Can't be a corpus test yet (gate-OFF/legacy can't allocate at lowering
time — the dual-path bind), so locked in via VM unit tests (many-pointer subslice;
struct_gep with a pointer base_type). 697/0 both gates + all unit tests.
