OCap based language (or a first class candidate).
“If language A is correctly implemented in language B, and new code enters the
system only in language A, then the nature of language B doesn't matter much.
JavaScript is indeed normally implemented in C, but unlike C, JavaScript is a
memory-safe language. Regarding safety and security, this makes all the
difference in the world. If the only new code admitted is JavaScript code, and if the
JavaScript implementation actually is correctly memory safe, then it doesn't matter
that this implementation is written in C.” - Mark Miller (by correspondence)
