I think it's mostly code generation. The parser seems to work decently, but 
from the sounds of it, he can't get quite a few things like the string syntax 
working because of difficulties generating the code.

I'm under the impression that at least a few people here are coders. If I can 
get some confirmation on that *and* the intent to participate, I'll make that 
a full-on contest.

. . . I don't want to be contestmaster though: Coding in Brainfuck is too much 
fun. I'd have the AFO as contestmaster, but I suspect that soon, a 
contestmaster will be required to be a first-class player.
