[IronPython] Pyc in IronPython 2.6

[Dino Viehland]

Compile on 64-bit?  :)

I have a guess of what the problem is here but I haven't run a test to
Confirm.  I recently ran into a similar issue when I increased the
number of constants we were generating - except for I was just trying
to pre-compile a single file.

If you want to build from source you can modify ToDiskRewriter.cs to add a
new member variable:

private Dictionary<ConstantExpression, Expression> _constantCache;

And then in VisitConstant replace:
                    Expression serialized = exprSerializable.CreateExpression();
                _constants.Add(serialized);

                return AstUtils.Convert(
                    Expression.ArrayAccess(_constantPool, AstUtils.Constant(_constants.Count - 1)),
                    serialized.Type
                );
With:


                Expression res;

                if (!_constantCache.TryGetValue(node, out res)) {
                    Expression serialized = exprSerializable.CreateExpression();
                    _constants.Add(serialized);

                    _constantCache[node] = res = AstUtils.Convert(
                        Expression.ArrayAccess(_constantPool, AstUtils.Constant(_constants.Count - 1)),
                        serialized.Type
                    );
                }

                return res;

and then add:

_constantCache = new Dictionary<ConstantExpression, Expression>();

To EnsureConstantPool()

If that doesn't work, or you don't want to build from source, I'll attempt to repro it and see what's going on.
