Refactor aset.c and mcxt.c in preparation for Valgrind cooperation.

Move some repeated debugging code into functions and store intermediates
in variables where not presently necessary.  No code-generation changes
in a production build, and no functional changes.  This simplifies and
focuses the main patch.
