            // a parameter, or variable declaration).

            // totally normal and common for block-containers to never actually have a block-scoped
            // variable in them.  We don't want to end up allocating an object for every 'block' we
            // run into when most of them won't be necessary.

            // Finally, if this is a block-container, then we clear out any existing .locals object
            // it may contain within it.  This happens in incremental scenarios.  Because we can be
            // reusing a node from a previous compilation, that node may have had 'locals' created
            // for it.  We must clear this so we don't accidently move any stale data forward from
