+	Added bytecode compilation of many Tcl commands. Some of these are
+	total compilations and some are only partial (i.e., only compile in
+	some cases). The (sub-)commands affected are:
+	* array: exists, set, unset
+	* dict: create, exists, merge
+	* format: (simple cases only)
+	* info: commands, coroutine, level, object
+	* info object: class, isa object, namespace
+	* namespace: current, code, qualifiers, tail, which
+	* regsub: (only cases convertable to simple [string map])
+	* self: (only no-argument and [self object] cases)
+	* string: first, last, map, range
+	* tailcall:
+	* yield:
+
+	[This was work originally done on the 'dkf-compile-misc-info' branch.]

+	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+	Code that relied on characters not previously trimmed being not
+	removed will notice a difference; it is believed that this is rare,
+	but a workaround to get the behavior in Tcl 8.5 is to use " \t\n\r" as
+	an explicit trim set.
