Sorry for the delayed response.  I will try to take a proper look in
the next couple of days.

Sounds good.  It will be interesting to see the overlap indeed, and it
sure is more motivating to work on the C to Lisp conversion if it can
actually be useful in terms of enabling improvements.

I suggest that I put my code on a branch, and we can take it from
there.  I have some loose ends to tie up before I can get back to it,
so please don't let that hold you back from what you're doing here.
