WRT array accesses, I was wondering whether it might not be profitable
to change the implementations of multidimensional arrays themselves (at
least for the Sparcs) to use a vector-of-pointers approach rather than
index computation (which involves software multiplication). I think it
is not unreasonable for the user to expect that the implementation
chooses the most efficient way for representing multidimensional
arrays.

				Thanks, Thomas.
