It is ready. The problem is that it is only a parser and not an 
interpreter. 

This parser read GP code and convert it to a syntactical tree.
This tree can trivially being interpreted.

Writing the interpreter is easy. What is a bit more difficult is
to integrate all that stuff in GP, in particular storing the tree.

Note that it is expected that this will lead to a GP interpreter
3 times faster on tight loop.

I suppose we should also evaluate how far we are from a new stable
release before attempting this change.

Cheers,
Bill.
