Getting axiom to play nice with aldor is the starting point, then there's a 
few compiler things that I would like to play with - axiom extend will be 
good to have, but may involve more axiom hacking than I have the patience

Having the interop stuff in at least one of the various axioms that are 
floating around is also on the list.
