Alex Shinn 8b5eb68238 File descriptors maintain a reference count of ports open on them
They can be close()d explicitly with close-file-descriptor, and
will close() on gc, but only explicitly closing the last port on
them will close the fileno.  Notably needed for network sockets
where we open separate input and output ports on the same socket.

** TODO native x86 backend
API redesign in preparation complete, initial
tests on native factorial and closures working.
** TODO fasl/image files
sexp_copy_context() can form the basis for images,
FASL for arbitrary modules will need additional
help with resolving external references.
*** DONE optional image loading on startup
- State "DONE" from "TODO" [2011-11-10 Thu 20:44]
*** TODO static image compiled into library
With this you'll be able to run Chibi without any filesystem.
*** TODO external tool to compact and optimize images
The current GC is mark&sweep, which can cause fragmentation,
but we can at at least compact the initial fixed image.
*** TODO fasl versions of modules
Important for large applications, and fast loading of script
with many dependencies.

- State "DONE" [2009-12-18 Fri 14:14]
This is important in particular for the output generated by
syntax-rules.
** TODO lambda lift
The current closure representation is not very efficient, so this
would help a lot.
** TODO inlining (and disabling primitive inlining)
Being able to redefine procedures is important though.
** TODO unsafe operations
Possibly, don't want to make things too complicated or unstable.

- State "DONE" from "TODO" [2010-07-11 Sun 23:58]
Supported with UTF-8 strings, string-ref is O(n) and
string-set! may need to reallocate the whole string.
string-cursor-ref can be used for O(1) string access.
** DONE threads
- State "DONE" from "TODO" [2010-07-11 Sun 15:31]
VM now supports an optional hook for green threads,
and a SRFI-18 interface is provided as a separate module.
I/O operations will currently block all threads though,
this needs to be addressed.
