+\ Batching:

+\ New words are deferred, and the corresponding C functions are
+\ collected in one file, until the first word is EXECUTEd; then the
+\ file is compiled and linked into the system, and the word is
+\ resolved.
+
+\ Caching:
+
+\ Instead of compiling all this stuff anew for every execution, we
+\ keep the files around and have an index file containing the function
+\ names and their corresponding .so files.  If the needed wrapper name
+\ is already present, it is just linked instead of generating the
+\ wrapper again.  This is all done by loading the index file(s?),
+\ which define words for the wrappers in a separate wordlist.
+
+\ The files are built in .../lib/gforth/$VERSION/libcc/ or
