TCO would already by a step forward: it would make continuation-
passing
I think TCO is very doable and likely to appear in some common JVMs at
some point.
Continuations, on the other hand, are likely to require a massive
infrastructure overhaul.

Perhaps a better question to ask is whether it is possible to
implement yield without user-available continuations. I assume it's
possible since Python has yield, but not continuations

Thanks! It works fine, the changes to stream-utils are checked in.
There is just one situation that still requires a wrapper: it is not
possible to make a stream directly from a s

For those who like me are playing with the stream-enabled branch of
Clojure, there is a new module stream-utils on clojure.contrib:
http://code.google.com/p/clojure-contrib/source/browse/trunk/src/
clojure/contrib/stream-utils.clj
Obviously this is very experimental, and absolutely no
