So there's no way to build from scratch then? Keeping both the julia and flisp parsers in sync seems unlikely to work well. I guess this is the classic bootstrapping problem. Maybe we need to keep a separate repository just to check a series of binaries into so that we can always recover without needing to keep the flisp parser in sync.
