Could some of our internal C sources be replaced by Emacs Lisp, which the
Makefile would compile into C as part of the regular build process? This would
allow testing using the Emacs Lisp version, with compilation into C for the
sake of performance. And maybe benchmark would even rule out the need to
compile that file in the end...
