The scopes are mainly used for symbols corresponding to variables and functions with this hiearchy: * builtin * global * function * block But the function_scope is only used for labels and __func__ and is meaningless outside a function. So, mainly in preparation for some incoming changes, let function_scope's parent be NULL instead of the builtin scope.
