Comment:

 There's more to this than meets the eye: we currently depend on random
 access to the streams of FASLs to load the .cls files in the order
 specified by the textual loader file (._ file).

 In addition, we depend on opening the same ZIP file twice because we load
 the '._' file at the same time as the .cls files. This is also not
 possible when loading off a stream.

 The current preloading API should help resolve this issue.
