If you research the topic, spend more than about four hours on it,
and can understand what they're talking about, you'll know more about
it than I do at this point. Try searching `citeseer' and `google'
for "direct threading" and "JIT", and also the links in:

Please RTFC. If you can read `libguile' code, you can read `librep'
with no trouble.
I have only recently encountered the idea of "threaded interpreters",
via the `librep-list' and the links from the above article. It will
be a while and some study before I feel competent.
