"print_vars_terms" wasn't doing its job properly; the offending line was "find_vars t1 #> find_vars t1", where the second "t1" should clearly have been "t2"

Old-style goal stack package.  The goal stack initially holds a dummy
proof, and can never become empty.  Each goal stack consists of a list
of levels.  The undo list is a list of goal stacks.  Finally, there
may be a stack of pending proofs.

(**** METAHYPS -- tactical for using hypotheses as meta-level assumptions
       METAHYPS (fn prems => tac prems) i

converts subgoal i, of the form !!x1...xm. [| A1;...;An] ==> A into a new
proof state A==>A, supplying A1,...,An as meta-level assumptions (in
"prems").  The parameters x1,...,xm become free variables.  If the
resulting proof state is [| B1;...;Bk] ==> C (possibly assuming A1,...,An)
then it is lifted back into the original context, yielding k subgoals.

Replaces unknowns in the context by Frees having the prefix METAHYP_
New unknowns in [| B1;...;Bk] ==> C are lifted over x1,...,xm.
DOES NOT HANDLE TYPE UNKNOWNS.


NOTE: This version does not observe the proof context, and thus cannot
work reliably.  See also Subgoal.SUBPROOF and Subgoal.FOCUS for
properly localized variants of the same idea.

  Main difference from strip_assums concerns parameters:
