Why are the xlftab.c:funtab[] entries so carefully numbered?
What is going to break if the numbering is changed? Primarily the
image save/restore stuff?
Why can't/shouldn't those things which will break key off the function
names instead of the table offsets?
Why are extra slots reserved at the end of funtab[]?
What's the point of image save/restore? Should saved images be
portable between machines or versions?
Would it be hard/pointless to write code to convert the xlisp
state into initialized C header files, so that the xlisp state
could be portably compiled into an application?
