Good information about this topic is available from
http://self.smli.com, the home page for the Self programming language
and system. The thesis of Craig Chambers, at
http://self.smli.com/papers/craig-thesis.html, does contain a lot of
that stuff in one piece (but the other papers are surely worth
reading, too).
