I would think so.  Do we have an exec() that does that yet?  (I don't 
see an appropriate module in usr/src/uts/common/exec.)

Out of curiosity, if you have a prototype for supporting this, I'd be 
interested to know how much precompiling saves on a big job with a fair 
amount of shell usage -- I'm thinking of the time to build ON, for example.
