If the language was also dynamically typed, that could also lead to some interesting problems. What is the actual size used to represent a string, or an in, or a double in the language? What happens when you want to compare/convert different types?
Either the language provides these capabilities, in which case it's doing some memory management of it's own, or you write them, in which case it wasn't necessarily all that dynamic to start with.
I imagine it might look like what you get when you try to write a dynamic language in C (Perl, Ruby, Python), a lot of macros that automate what's going on to the degree you are mostly writing some macro based DSL.
