in an earlier life, I used non-preemtive threads (that is,
explicit yields) and co-routines to do some really cool
stuff with very little code. looks like a stack-less inter-
preter would make it trivial to implement that.
might just be nostalgia, but I think I would give an arm
or two to get that (not necessarily my own, though ;-)
