  In this paper, we build an interpreter by reusing host language functions
instead of recoding mechanisms of function application that are already
available in the host language (the language which is used to build the
interpreter). In order to transform user-defined functions into host language
functions we use combinatory logic : lambda-abstractions are transformed into a
composition of combinators. We provide a mechanically checked proof that this
step is correct for the call-by-value strategy with imperative features.
