[MLton] CommandLine_commandName has no gotoInfo property

[Ben Chambers]

Still working on it.  I don't think it ever got resolved, we continue
to run with -codegen c in order to get paste the command line tests.
Other than that, we finished all the CPS stuff, and we got gamma-CFA
running, but due to the naiveness of the first implementation (which
has been done for a while) it ran pretty slow.  In addition, whenever
the standard library got pulled in, some bug in the CFA caused it to
loop forever.  Right now we are rewriting it to get a bit more
performance out of it, and in the near future we will return to
debugging it.

The SXML->CPS->SSA transformation worked for the most part.
