Not if we're talking about generating a compiler, it isn't. I think
part of our problem is that, besides extending python FAR beyond
its original problem domain, we look like we're heading towards the
first python compiler, as opposed to the CPython and Jython interpreters
(ok, there is freeze, but it uses the internals of an interpreter to
run, so not really). What we need to do is figure out if we want a
direct compiler in which to write an interpeter, or just an interpreter,
which wouldn't ever be free standing.

meta-circular-ly yours,
