 I would like to add support for this idea from an unexpected corner:
 Python.  Jean-Claude Wippler has suggested to me that there are many
 facilities that are present in both the Python and the Tcl runtime,
 and that we'd do society a favor by sharing implementation.  For example,
 hash tables and buffered file I/O are present in both languages, and neither
 has something particularly exciting to add -- these are just fundamentals
 that each language needs.  Any takers?
