These refer to stack height.  net = out - in (defined on AbstartInst), out
is the minimum stack height upon exit from this instruction, in is the
minimum stack height upon entry.  The non-machine instructions will, I
think, call double-word (long, for instance) arguments 1 count, while the
machine instructions call them 2 counts; the instructions are aware of
what type they're operating on.
