I like the interpreter to provide a scripting and testing environment
beyond the scope of the compiler. It also makes Chicken easier to use
for the beginner.
Including everything into the compiler is a bad idea, as already pointed
out. So, I vote for an option at configuration - something like 'configure
--reduced-csi'. The name is not important. You get the idea.
The only problem I see s that some of your preconfigured scripts might
not run with the reduced interpreter anymore. It should be taken care
of in advance (like compiling them in the first place - hint, hint).
