Three changes that together enable the full 46-function stdlib migration:
1. CEK callable unification (spec/evaluator.sx):
cek-call now routes both native callables and SX lambdas through
continue-with-call, so replacing a native function with an SX lambda
doesn't change shift/reset behavior.
2. Named-let transpiler support (hosts/javascript/transpiler.sx):
(let loop ((i 0)) body...) now transpiles to a named IIFE:
(function loop(i) { body })(0)
This was the cause of the 3 test regressions (produced [object Object]).
3. Full stdlib via runtime eval (hosts/javascript/bootstrap.py):
stdlib.sx is eval'd at runtime (not transpiled) so its defines go
into PRIMITIVES without shadowing module-scope variables that the
transpiled evaluator uses directly.
stdlib.sx now contains all 46 library functions:
Logic: not
Comparison: != <= >= eq? eqv? equal?
Predicates: boolean? number? string? list? dict? continuation?
zero? odd? even? empty?
Arithmetic: inc dec abs ceil round min max clamp
Collections: first last rest nth cons append reverse flatten
range chunk-every zip-pairs
Dict: vals has-key? assoc dissoc into
Strings: upcase downcase string-length substring string-contains?
starts-with? ends-with? split join replace contains?
Text: pluralize escape parse-datetime assert
All hosts: JS 957+1080, Python 744, OCaml 952 — zero regressions.

Introduce 8 irreducible host FFI primitives that replace 40+ native DOM
and browser primitives:
host-global — access global object (window/document)
host-get — read property from host object
host-set! — write property on host object
host-call — call method on host object
host-new — construct host object
host-callback — wrap SX function as host callback
host-typeof — check host object type
host-await — await host promise
All DOM and browser operations are now expressible as SX library
functions built on these 8 primitives:
web/lib/dom.sx — createElement, querySelector, appendChild,
setAttribute, addEventListener, classList, etc.
web/lib/browser.sx — localStorage, history, fetch, setTimeout,
promises, console, matchMedia, etc.
The existing native implementations remain as fallback — the library
versions shadow them in transpiled code. Incremental migration: callers
don't change, only the implementation moves from out-of-band to in-band.
JS 957+1080, Python 744, OCaml 952 — zero regressions.

Two fundamental environment bugs fixed:
1. env-set! was used for both binding creation (let, define, params)
and mutation (set!). Binding creation must NOT walk the scope chain
— it should set on the immediate env. Only set! should walk.
Fix: introduce env-bind! for all binding creation. env-set! now
exclusively means "mutate existing binding, walk scope chain".
Changed across spec (eval.sx, cek.sx, render.sx) and all web
adapters (dom, html, sx, async, boot, orchestration, forms).
2. makeLambda/makeComponent/makeMacro/makeIsland used merge(env) to
flatten the closure into a plain object, destroying the prototype
chain. This meant set! inside closures couldn't reach the original
binding — it modified a snapshot copy instead.
Fix: store env directly as closure (no merge). The prototype chain
is preserved, so set! walks up to the original scope.
Tests: 499/516 passing (96.7%), up from 485/516.
Fixed: define self-reference, let scope isolation, set! through
closures, counter-via-closure pattern, recursive functions.

Python: bootstrap.py, platform.py, transpiler.sx, boundary_parser.py, tests/
JavaScript: bootstrap.py, cli.py, platform.py, transpiler.sx
Both bootstrappers verified — build from new locations, output to shared/.
