IMO, this would be *very* nice, and perhaps having a language neutral
IL is more likely to succeed than other-language->guile front ends.

I think it would be wonderful if we ended up with a really good hybrid
IL -> byte-code/jit-machine code compiler that could host a variety of
languages.  Sounds like a tall order, though :>
