An alternative is to automatically specialize your interpreter at
run-time, thus yielding the same functionality as a JIT compiler.
Cf. work done in
  - the Compose project
        * run-time specialization:
http://www.irisa.fr/compose/papers/#rt_spec
        * applications for compiler generation:

        * a run-time specializer for C: Tempo
