I've tried to do search for users of FuncCallContext->slot and couldn't
find anything. Therefore I'm more inclined to drop it too - just about
all cases where it's useful seem to require a more extensive
datastructure around anyway. Unless somebody protests I'm going to that
in a few - if somebody later in the cycle signals a need for it, we can
still revert that part.
