Well I can understand that you want MUSH to be efficient, so
maybe the additional code that is needed could be conditionally
compiled, or yet another runtime option.  I don't know exactly
what's needed to get this to work, but I would think it wouldn't
slow things down all that much anyway.  If I find some time,
perhaps I'll try doing it myself.
