I don't understand this distinction between OLD FASL files and NEW FASL
files. There is only one set of FASL files on the MACSYM; directory,
and, say, a month after creating a MACSYMA release these FASL files are
useless as they are no longer guaranteed to be the same FASL files in
existence a month previous. Furthermore, the idea that I am going to
dump out a new release MACSYMA in a later LISP without extensive testing
horrifies me.
