Well, good luck.  Sounds like I've opened up a real can of worms.  Do you
have any comments on the rest of my original email from Sunday or my response 
to Stephen.  I'm particularly interested in whether you think there is much
to be gained in terms of reducing the amount of code generated and improving
compile times by revisiting the logical design.
