Try using an agenda-based search technique, which requires no compiler or
interpreter and only one or two extra odds and sods to be passed between
functions. Eats stack, but is considerably easier to understand, and can 
be modified to depth-first search with no extra code.

(or have I missed a couple of prior postings which explain why this is not
 an applicable technique????)
