Ok, well Eliot pushed the closure code out the door, we need to build  
VMs to exploit it.
I've not been able to build the macintosh os-x carbon VM based on it  
yet.
Spent the day trying to integrate Craig's Spoon work with most current  
VMMaker.
Tomorrow (tuesday) I'll see about building a new closure VM.
I note this will be a 4.0.0 VM to note the change from a non-closure  
to closure VM


PS Some bright person might want to code up some RB find templates to  
look for methods
where if you use the closure VM it will possibly  give you different  
behaviour than with the
current VM.

Unless of course everyone feels comfortable in turning block closures  
on, and assuming nothing
will change?
