I have a pretty good idea how they work and how one goes about implementing one. I don't see what the problem with implementing 'namespaces' is (you'll have to elaborate on a more exact definition of the term, but I'll assume it's either the Java/C# idea of a namespace or a module system like Scheme's, or a package system like Common Lisp's). It seems perfectly implementable to me, except that it just won't be C that you'll be implementing.
