DX and DYs are are interpreter functions written in C.
A DH is a function generated by the Lush compiler.

Contrary to Ralph, I would make everything more like
the DH and progressively remove DX/DY and replace
them by a minimal interpreter (everything would be 
compiled on the fly).

Leon has thought about this quite a bit. He can't 
do this by himself but would probably provide 
advice to whoever would be bold enough to dive
into such an undertaking.

Indeed, but that can be pretty minimal.
