My basic point is that I think that making Emchars and Bufbytes into
real objects with a linker-enforced interface would make it
(eventually) easier and less buggy to work with Mule and other
radical extensions of the idea that character == byte (text
properties?).
But if Emchar were a real, linker-enforced object, then you would have
to compile with Mule *always*, which is exactly what people bitch and
moan about with FSFmacs. The slowdown might also be spectacular.
