There is only one file making up the example: Bmark.sml. Several
theories are produced in the course of execution.  They are currently
represented by the structures

    NEXTTheory,  MULT_FUN_CURRYTheory, MULT_FUNTheory, 
    primsTheory, MULT_IMPTheory, MULT_VERTheory

which are automatically cleaned up after the benchmark finishes.

| TO RUN: invoke "run_bmark <hol98> in the shell, where <hol98> is a    |
| path to Hol98.                                                        |
