Well ... `going on' is perhaps a bit strong.

Also, in this implementation, it wouldn't be the default, each source
file must explicitly specify that it wants to use lexical binding
(which means that all the old crufty code needn't be fixed at once).

If you're curious, you can check out the emacs CVS branch `lexbind' to
see what's there -- interpreted code and the compiler runtime work, the
compiler changes are largely written, but don't work correctly yet.
