Why do I think modes I and III are so important?
1) it used to work in earlier version of ABCL (pre 2008)
2) It will help make it possible again to "incrementally" write new compilation (leveraged for the authoring of the first compiler) They will be able to test mode I and III for sanity. Then when that is achieved, they may feel confident to complile their base system and start to compare III and IV (the big one!).
3) Will allow once again environments that have NO compilation to "extend the system" using only lisp files with the confidence the system is ANSI regression free.
