Removed GNU dtable and sparse array implementations, replaced entirely now with versions based on the Étoilé runtime. Performance is roughly equivalent in microbenchmarks, memory usage is significantly lower (Gorm goes from 95MB to 50MB on my machine - this will be even more pronounced on 64-bit systems), which should improve cache usage considerably. Still room for some performance tuning, however.
Imported selector table code frm the Étoilé runtime. We can now make dispatch type dependent with a -D switch. Not enabled yet, but it will be enabled in a warning mode soon - I consider preferable to the existing GNU and Apple solution of corrupting the stack.
