Hi Alistair,

fixing that specific bug (i.e. support for the ": register" syntax) is
pretty trivial, I even have a patch for that in my queue. It's been
postponed by other stuff for a long time but in principle I can send
it in the next few days.

The problem is that fixing it won't probably help for actually running
Star Trek Online, nullDC or any other program currently blocked by
that. The HLSL compiler is still missing a lot of stuff, only the
parser is currently implemented and the code generation part is
totally absent.

Cheers,
Matteo.
