How difficult to you think they would be to make? How much can be done without introducing incompatibilites, at least at the source code level? Are there any potential speedups of such overriding benefit that minor incompatibilities might be worth it? -- Peter Reiher reiher@ucla-cs.arpa {...ihnp4,ucbvax,sdcrdcf}!ucla-cs!reiher
