- cjenkins 17y agoThe first reply at http://groups.google.com/group/clojure/browse_thread/thread/3a2da6a71a2213be http://groups.google.com/group/clojure/browse_thread/thread/... goes into pretty good detail from the language designer. The short version is that it's a limitation in the JVM currently that he's hoping is removed some day.
