Ok, I added that tail optimized version to math.arc.

Do you want to have a separate math libs for the scheme functions and native implementations? You already suggested the possibility.

Err, "native implementations" being?

Actually I think it might be better if we had a spec which says "A Good Arc Implementation (TM) includes the following functions when you (require "lib/math.arc"): ...." Then the programmer doesn't even have to care about "scheme functions" or "java functions" or "c functions" or "machine language functions" or "SKI functions" - the implementation imports it by whatever means it wants.

Maybe also spec that the implementation can reserve the plain '$ for implementation-specific stuff.
