Error messages!
If your code is not compiled, you can't know whether it is valid 
or not.

I must say that since we have unittests, this is somewhat less 
relevant, but still...
One nice thing would be stripping the executable of unneeded code.
One trick I've seen done in a program which compiled some scripts 
to an intermediate language was zeroing the parts which are 
unused, then use some executable compressor.
