This is acceptable to me.  However, I think we need to think about
adding a script or something for the user to run to do the necessary
magic to get him into matlisp.  We may also want to create a
matlisp.core, which I don't think currently happens.  But I tend not
to save cores and instead load up the individual fasls.  But matlisp
is big so loading these is a bit slow....
