Incremental Compilation

I looked at various manners of implementing incremental compilation. Of course, one of the best manners would be to choose an object format. However, since I don't want to write all the code for writing and reading objects, I'll do it a bit differently and just marshal the AST to object files.

Benefits, ML supports marshalling, and it should be okay-ishly simple to implement a simple marshalling scheme in the C runtime. So, two strikes in one.
