I particularly remember there was this really insane student who wanted to re-write the thing for speed, rather than portability. He was going to hack the commonly used portions from lisp into macro-11 (which the lower levels were already written in). But then, he was also working part time for CDC as a NOS and NOS/BE hacker...
