Enabling the epoch serving-mode JIT globally regressed continuation-based guest
interpreters (the epoch mode is the shared command channel every loop's
conformance runner uses). Two-part fix:
1. SAFE DEFAULT GATE. register_jit_hook in the persistent server branch is now
opt-in via SX_SERVING_JIT=1 (default OFF). Default behaviour is unchanged
(no JIT in epoch serving) → zero regression for sibling loops. The
content/Smalltalk page server opts in.
2. GENERAL FIXES + per-guest interpret-only declarations:
- callable? (sx_server/run_tests/integration_tests/mcp_tree) now accepts
VmClosure. A JIT-compiled higher-order function returns its inner closure
as a VmClosure; callable? previously rejected it, so scheme-apply's
(callable? proc) guard failed with "not a procedure: <vm:anon>".
- jit-exclude! gains a trailing-"*" namespace-prefix form
(Sx_types.jit_excluded_prefixes), the robust way to mark a whole guest
interpreter interpret-only (a name-list misses functions in extra files —
it left erlang's vm/dispatcher JIT'd and 13 tests short).
- Per-guest exclusions in each guest's runtime.sx:
scheme "scheme-*" "scm-*" erlang "er-*" "erlang-*"
prolog "pl-*" common-lisp "cl-*" "clos-*"
js "js-*" haskell "hk-*"
Verified under opt-in JIT (== CEK, no hang): smalltalk 847/847, scheme/flow
166/166, erlang 530/530, prolog 590/590, apl 152/152, js 147/148. Residual
(documented, protected by the default gate): common-lisp 6 fails in advanced
suites (parser-recovery/debugger/CLOS/MOP). lua (0/16) and tcl (3/4) fail
identically on CEK — pre-existing, not JIT. run_tests --jit/no-jit unchanged.

lib/guest/prefix.sx defines a single (defmacro prefix-rename PREFIX ENTRIES)
form that takes a prefix string and a quoted list of entries. Each entry
is either a bare symbol (same-name alias: cl-foo = foo) or a 2-element
list (alias target) for renames (cl-mod = modulo).
Ported lib/common-lisp/runtime.sx: 47 hand-written (define cl-X Y) lines
across 13 contiguous groups now collapse into prefix-rename calls. Loaded
lib/guest/prefix.sx in the conformance preamble so the macro is available
when runtime.sx is parsed.
Verification: cl scoreboard 518/518, up from a stale baseline of 309/309
— Phase 2 (evaluator, +182) and Phase 6 (stdlib, +27) had under-counted
historical results, not affected by this change. No regressions; baseline
updated to reflect true counts.
PARTIAL — pending second consumer. lua/runtime.sx (the brief's specified
second consumer) has zero pure same-name aliases — every lua- definition
wraps custom logic. Step left [partial — pending lua] until a consumer
fits, or the second-consumer choice is revisited (js/runtime.sx has 2
candidates: isFinite/isNaN).

cl-debugger-hook: mutable global (fn (c hook) result); cl-invoke-debugger
calls it with infinite-recursion guard (sets hook nil during call).
cl-error now routes unhandled errors through cl-invoke-debugger instead of
bare host error — allows the hook to invoke a restart and resume.
cl-break-on-signals: when set to a type name, cl-signal fires the debugger
hook before walking handlers if the condition matches.
cl-invoke-restart-interactively: calls the restart fn with no args (no
terminal protocol — equivalent to (invoke-restart name)).
4 new tests in conditions.sx covering all three; Phase 3 fully complete.

define-condition with 15-type ANSI hierarchy (condition/error/warning/
simple-error/simple-warning/type-error/arithmetic-error/division-by-zero/
cell-error/unbound-variable/undefined-function/program-error/storage-condition).
cl-condition-of-type? walks the hierarchy; cl-make-condition builds tagged
dicts {:cl-type "cl-condition" :class name :slots {...}}. cl-signal-obj
walks cl-handler-stack for non-unwinding dispatch. cl-handler-case and
cl-restart-case use call/cc escape continuations for unwinding. All stacks
are mutable SX globals (the built-in handler-bind/restart-case only accept
literal AST specs — not computed lists). Key fix: cl-condition-of-type?
captures cl-condition-classes at define-time via let-closure to avoid
free-variable failure through env_merge parent chain.
55 tests in lib/common-lisp/tests/conditions.sx, wired into test.sh.

Type predicates, arithmetic, chars (inline α/digit/case),
format, gensym, values, sets, radix, list utilities.
cl-empty? guards all list traversal against () vs nil in sx_server.
Load spec/stdlib.sx in test.sh to expose format.
Fix lib/r7rs.sx number->string to use (= (len r) 0) not (nil? r).
