ok i think i have a strategy.  the idea is, to *return* things from
the various functions (as a list if there are 2 or more of them), and
to use singlepipe's eq() function to m.d.sync them to a corresponding
list of items that they need to be assigned to.

if the "thing" being returned is a compound object, use an ObjectProxy
(see new decode2 fn), otherwise just make a Signal

first though modify fmul.py to use the new get_op() syntax, i'll do fdiv.py ok?
