Agreed: table-driven programming requires subprogram variables to
work smoothly. We encounter other cases where they would be quite
useful.
By the way, we implemented subprogram variables when we wrote our
Ada-based X bindings. Works quite well, and only requires the body
of one package to be rehosted on each platform. The rest is pure
Ada.
