Another advantage of the way AKCL is distributed is that I can
ftp a relatively small file of diffs.
Nor do I mind having the make proceed by first using the old
compiler, then the new one. Among other things, it's reassuring
to know the old compiler works that well. It's also faster
than running an interpreted compiler which, having dealt
extensively with Franz Lisp, I know can be a pain.
