> I thought about making a p3k branch in CVS

I had hoped for the core of p3k to be built for scratch so that even the
most pervasive and fundamental implementation choices would be open for
discussion:

* Possibly write in C++.
* Possibly replace bytecode with Forth style threaded code.
* Possibly toss ref counting in favor of some kind of GC.
* Consider ways to leverage multiple processor environments.
* Consider alternative ways to implement exception handling (long jumps,
etc, signals, etc.)
* Look at alternate ways of building, passing, and parsing function
arguments.
* Use b-trees instead of dictionaries (just kidding).
