	Just a small side note.  You will find that generating object or
even executable code DIRECTLY from the compiler spiffs up overall performance
quite a bit.  Since they're going for object compatibility across all the
unices available for the '386 architecture, it seems like a better place
to hook in.

				Just a though...
