I didn't think of this before (I'm not sure why), but in my compiler
project, one thing that really bothers me is that when I enter
expressions in "programmer mode" evaluating them generally requires a
linear search through a series of tables representing nested scopes.
This inefficiency can be avoided when the whole program is compiled at
once, but not when it is entered a line at a time at the programmer
prompt.

Anyway, I've been exploring various possible solutions, and it occurs
to me that the problem is really not unlike what you describe. Perhaps
I need my own "whole file cross-reference"!
