Or you could support my proposals, and then insert a cond-expand at the top of your code that would check that the %bignums feature was absent. There is also Chicken, which is fixnum+flonum unless you load the optional numbers egg (though Chicken's compiler doesn't deal in unboxed floats, so float performance isn't what it could be). On a smaller scale, you can recompile Chibi with "#define USE_FLONUMS 0". -- Mos Eisley spaceport.
