How is filling it up with routine_id()'s not contributing to spagetti code? The
very nature
of an interpreter lends to making the interpreter smart, and the Eu interpreter
is quite
smart already, but seems to me that not making a table of available functions
before
barfing on an unknown function call, just because it wasn't forward referenced,
is rather
silly.
