* A command to register successor fstate expressions.

  Unifying substitutes and successors isn't very feasible for now,
  since substitutes are only used when no path with a certain is
  known.  Therefore, a normal form of some expression stored as a
  substitute would not be used unless the expression itself was
  missing.
