Commenting out lines from the dump corresponding to objects that
will be defined by another script. I also had problem with OPERATOR
as only the name is listed (I parsed the ascii version as a workaround).
I can parse the ascii version for CASTS as well... but I if everything
was possible just using the ToC that would be faster.
