I thought it was kind of funky-clever how they figured out when a statement 
ended.  They analyze the code and count pushes and pops, and a statement 
ends when the evaluation stack pops the last value off.  That's the 
definition of "one statement" in the CIL - the code between the first push 
and the matching pop that empties the data/operand stack.
