Here is the stab for the `this' pointer implicit argument. The name

defined as a pointer to type 20, baseA, but a stab defining baseA has
not yet been emited. Since the compiler knows it will be emited
shortly, here it just outputs a cross reference to the undefined

The stab for the explicit integer argument looks just like a parameter
