Oops. Had the old email open.

looking at it again, I'm wondering if we can split the unary and
binary ops up, and then instead of adding

	if(EQ(a, '-?')) {
		b = nxtarg(0);
		return(eval && ...);
	}

we could do:

	/* special case ops */
	if(EQ(a, "special))
		...

	/* common case binary ops */
	b = nxtarg(0);
	if(!eval)
		return 0;
	if(EQ(a, "-?")
		return(...)
	if(eq(a, "-!")
		return(...)

It looks like there'd only be a few special cases that
don't fit.
