I have no objection.  compiledlibs are a fairly small chunk of code 
built ontop of the serialization code thats native, which is still good 
for the heap and Ks for example.

We can bound the space problems of thunk libraries by having smaller 
libraries (each individual SRFI vs all of them in one, for example).
