Interesting! That would certainly make getting ANSI working simpler -
only one Boot->Lisp translation to clean up. If the SPAD compiler is
itself written in Boot, that might solve both problems (doubt it, but
maybe...) I had the boottocl in the src/boot directory running in sbcl
at one point, but I never did figure out if it was working correctly.
I doubt it was generating loadable lisp :-(
You're doing some really exciting work Gaby - thank you!
