+Implements CCL by compiling it on the client-side into a Z39.50 Type-1
+(RPN) query, and sending that.  Because the compilation is done on the

+CCL is syntactically very similar to CQL, but much looser.  While CQL
+is an entirely precise language in which each possible query has
+rigorously defined semantics, and is thus suitable for transfer as
