Already done, unless I misunderstand your idea.  Well, the arguments
might still get copied into the new frame's locals area but I'm pretty

  That being done, all you have to do next is call free() slightly
  less often than malloc(). You may want to examine the Solaris

  this technique.          -- Eric O'Dell, comp.lang.dylan (& x-posts)
