  I haven't tried out your version of the sources, but I can pinpoint a
difference between our approaches:  you import List as a type in the
DEFINITION module for Stacks, while I do it only in the IMPLEMENTATION. 
You also declare Stack to be equal List in the DEFINITION, while I want
to keep it opaque.  Maybe I shouldn't be so nit-picking, but I thought
this kind of information-hiding was what Maodula-2 programming was all
about.  Thanks for the information on type-transfer functions, though
(as usual, quite, but not totally unlike the standard.  I love it).
