+        // These fields are of the generic parameter types, and are
+        // frequently instantiated as struct types in derived classes.
+        // Semantic actions are defined in the derived classes and refer
+        // to instance fields of these structs.  In such cases the code

+        // the getter pushes the value of the field, not the reference.

+        // such field accesses as ... 
+        //  "tmp = get_CurrentSemanticValue(); // Fetch value
+        //   tmp.myField = blah;               // update
+        //   set_CurrentSemanticValue(tmp); "  // Write update back.

+        // ==============================================================
+        // These fields are of the generic parameter types, and are
+        // frequently instantiated as struct types in derived classes.
+        // Semantic actions are defined in the derived classes and refer
+        // to instance fields of these structs.  In such cases the code
+        // "get_CurrentSemanticValue().myField = blah;" will fail since
+        // the getter pushes the value of the field, not the reference.
+        // So, in the presence of properties, gppg would need to encode
+        // such field accesses as ... 
+        //  "tmp = get_CurrentSemanticValue(); // Fetch value
+        //   tmp.myField = blah;               // update
+        //   set_CurrentSemanticValue(tmp); "  // Write update back.
