Kawa is similar: it does have eval, but eval is by
default implemented to always compile-and-load.

An exception is on Android: run-time compilation is not supported on
Android, because it doesn't support standard ClassLoader.defineClass.
So there we use an interpreter for eval, load, and the repl.
