Exciting times! Much kudos to Andy, who has just merged a big and
interesting change, the effect of which is essentially to stop using the
old C-coded evaluator.
(Actually it's not quite true that there's only a hole left. We still
need a basic C evaluator for bootstrapping, but it's much smaller and
simpler than what was there before.)
FWIW, building and make check all look good to me. There are some
noticeable benchmark changes - some slower and some faster - which I'll
look more into.
Regards,
Neil
