I'll point out as well that though I thought Yegge's criticisms of Clojure were a bit polemical (I guess that's his style), the single pass compiler issue was one of his biggest gripes, and I do think it still rings true. I feel like I have to babysit clojure in this regard, when I usually feel like clojure is babysitting me! :)
