Can't do that on a Mac... Robert Pelak's excellent Inform port isn't
*quite* excellent enough, and doesn't offer multitasking support. :(

I do like the idea of precompiled headers, though... really, they
shouldn't need to be changed ever, what with "extend"s and so on.

Graham, are you listening? Do you see precompiled headers in your great
big Inform crystal ball?
