No, interpsys is a part of OA sources and used only for building. As I said before, one can think of it as of libtool or similar. SBCL adds shebangs in order to make "standalong executables". One can copy /usr/bin/sbcl to /any/path/with/any/name and compile lisp source using this new file and get shebang: #! /any/path/with/any/name --script But FASL-files are not used as standalong executables in OA, and the only mandatory part of FASL is line "# FASL". Might this cause a problem for someone down the line?

AFAIK this is how most lisp compilers work: include its core into resulting binaries. Thanks for your time. Hope this is of some use, interest. > > Joseph > > Thanks!
