[chuck-dev] Patches: compiler warnings and test programs

Greetings!

Thanks for the patches.  We have applied the larger one and also dealt 
with what we could find of the rest of the compiler warnings (-Wall). 
If you have v2 checked out, please update, make clean, and give it a try 
and see if things work, including on 64-bit systems.  Please email me any 
errors or warnings.

Thank you again for the patches.  We haven't applied the first one yet 
because we haven't finalized what <<<foo>>> should output exactly, or if 
there will be variants of <<< >>>.

Presently, <<<foo>>> prints the value of foo and its type.  <<<foo, 
bar>>> prints foo and bar without type.  So on for <<<>>> with more 
arguments.  Some issues are (1) should <<<foo>>> print the type? (2) 
should we make a new operator based on <<<>>> for printing foo to 
arbitrary file handles (stdout, stderr, files, etc.)?  We will likely 
bring back chucking to file handles (foo => stdout), so <<<>>> 
won't be the only option.  Thoughts?

Best,
Ge!
