   @cwebber Goddamnit, why I am only now hearing about "Pre-Scheme" for the first time in my life!?
   https://groups.scheme.org/prescheme/1.3/
   - no garbage collector
   - no closures
   - Tail call optimization is not universal
   - Types are strictly verified with Hindley-Milner type inference.

   If anyone wanted to write an OS kernel in a Lisp, Pre-Scheme sounds like it would be a very good choice.
