Okay

Effectively in comp.c are allocate object that goes into pure space and
all the code is under #ifdef HAVE_NATIVE_COMP.

Also the constant objects present in every compilation unit can have a
small overhead respect to the elc one.  This is because they include the
data used by the 'top_level_run' function.

We could split this but personally I'm not sure is worth to complexify
the design to save some KBs of configuration specific pure space.
