Maybe it is a bug, maybe a feature request (to preserve the variable names) You can
decide, but i think it is a bug.
I pushed some changes. The transfer function here should not lose variable names.
But other functions do. I don't know why but some of functions use both registers and
variables and I cannot distinguish it so if it is DefineFunction2 I always use registers.
And I put DefineFunction2 there when it is inner function or method or use reserved words
as super,_global,_root, etc.
