/**
* stack.h
*
* The Lisp evaluation stack.
*
* Stack frames could be implemented in cons space; indeed, the stack
* could simply be an assoc list consed onto the front of the environment.
* But such a stack would be costly to search. The design sketched here,
* with stack frames as special objects, SHOULD be substantially more
* efficient, but does imply we need to generalise the idea of cons pages
* with freelists to a more general 'equal sized object pages', so that
* allocating/freeing stack frames can be more efficient.
*
* Stack frames are not yet a first class object; they have no VECP pointer
* in cons space.
