I remember that stubs support was recently added to xotcl.
>From the above, I gather stubs support is not being used
when compiling the distributed binaries.  Is there a reason
why not?  It seems like it is a low cost (simply add the 
"-DUSE_TCL_STUBS" compile switch?) thing to do in order to
get the benefit of distributing more widely usable binaries.
