The current plan is to create an AST and replace the bytecode compiler. 
We're leaving a rewrite of the parser for a later project.  It's a
fairly big project; large parts of it are done, but there is work
remaining to do in nearly every part -- the concrete-to-abstract
translator, error checking, compilation to byte-code.

At the moment, it's possible to start an interactive interpreter session
and see what works.  But it isn't possible to compile and run all of
site.py and everything it imports.
