I don't see the point in these lang-specific drivers (or at least, the
ones we have at present). They seem to do little, and what little
they do could be added as a few lines in the scheme I proposed. Maybe
they're there only because of SPEC issues?
I don't see why they couldn't all be a hard / soft link to the same
binary, on Unix at least, which changes it's behaviour based on
argv[0].
