- Stepstone is already working on building a compiler which will not

- more likely that Stepstone (or someone else with access to the source)
- will modify the compiler to make it "better" for the generation of DLLs.

- If I thought there was sufficient demand for such, I might do it
- myself. I would also need a specification for the desired changes (or
- enhancements). Can someone out there tell me specifically what it is
- you want? ^^^^^^^^^^^^ What
- specific changes should be made to the generated code?
