When you run from source, it is compiled internally to bytecode, so
using the library source or in bytecode form should be the same.

See the "linklet" branch of the "mflatt/racket" repo on GitHub:

  https://github.com/mflatt/racket/tree/linklet

The "pkgs" directory has new subdirectories:

 * "expander" --- an essentially complete rewrite of the macro
   expander, module system, and reader

 * "regexp" --- an essentially complete rewrite of the regexp matcher

 * "path" --- a barely started rewrite of path operations

 * "port" --- a barely started rewrite of input and output ports

Next on my list is the thread and events subsystem, and so on. The goal
is to replace nearly all of the C code with Racket implementations.

I hope it's ok if I defer this question for a little while (a couple of
weeks at most), since I should be able to give a better answer soon.
