Can't you call that somewhere in an outer frame? E.g. where you create the interpreter. > Is the stacktop per interpreter? Yes. But DOD/GC with mutiple interpreters/threads isn't really investigated especially when there are shared PMCs. > What then would be needed is a set_stacktop(Interp*, void*) function. You can use above function exactly for this. If the interpreter is initialized it skips that part and just sets the stack top. But calling Parrot_init_stack() in the same stack frame, where automatic PMC variables are located might or might not work, because you don't know the order of automatic variables in the stack frame. > Arthur leo
