# One of the things that the configure script needs to do is
# generate the
# opcode dispatch macro to either be a giant switch statement (with a
# fallthrough default to handle cases we don't know about) or
# the function
# table dispatch we have now.

If somebody codes up the alternate dispatch, I can easily modify
Configure.pl, config_h.in and the hints files to handle it.  Something
like this, perhaps:

        #define USE_${dispatch}_DISPATCH

        #ifdef USE_switch_DISPATCH
                #define DISPATCHER
                        <switch-based dispatcher code here>
        #else
                #define DISPATCHER
                        <function table-based dispatcher code here>
        #endif
