That could be a good. :)

   I think that would boost the speed of EU a bit too wouldn't it?
Load times would be slightly slower, but execution would be faster. I 
don't think anyone is concerned about load times with EU.

   It wouldn't have to verify syntax on the 2nd pass, include files 
could be preloaded to memory, code optimizations could be done (unroll 
small loops, strip unused code, inline uncommmon routines, etc..), and I 
THINK, typechecking could be minimized.
