   I have some knowledge (only "theoretic", though) about the WAM, but I have
   never seen anything about the compilation of the disjunction ';' (and
   also things like '->').

   do you do anything special about this construct, or do you just
   consider it as an ordinary predicate with a definition like:
   P ;_Q :- P.
   _P; Q :- Q.

SICStus Prolog does nothing special, and considers it as an ordinary
predicate as you describe.
