Hackity hackity hack.

Though despite this seeming mass of work, not many of the grand plans are being brought to fruition... the most major change recently has been

-for early 0.7.x
+for late 0.7.x

Still, SBCL turns out to be quite reasonable as a working environment; it's quite standards-compliant (failing 5 out of 6109 tests in an (independent) ANSI test suite near you); it has support for advanced techniques in Object Oriented programming; it's generally whizzy and comes with spangly bits. My current efforts are going to zapping the last remaining confusion over when it's valid to define things behind the user's back (answer: usually not); maybe sometime I'll find time to implement my nifty plan to integrate PCL with the rest of the compiler more fully.

Maybe I should worry more about coming to the end of my doctoral studies and what happens next, too.
