Debuggers and decompilers usually don't have the nt available; in
indirect=-threaded code, they have the CFA, which is probably used as
xt, so if the synonym has the same xt, the decompiler/debugger will
decompile the same name.  Which is not a problem, because decompilers
(and debuggers) are a best-effort issue anyway, and programmers tend
to accept this (e.g., native-code compilers typically show assembly
code as output of SEE).
