Don't do what C and C++ do and implement includes, it's a severely brain dead
approach. Implement a real module / unit / package system and when the
compiler reaches and import / use / with / whatever statement, the compiler
needs to read in the symbol table for that.


Do what Ada does and allow the driver to take many files and just compile
them.
