However, the point is still sound, and that WILL work in P6, as I

Hmm, that's too bad--it could be quite an opportunity for optimization, if you could use-and-discard lexical information at compile-time, when you know there's no eval around to need it.

Even if not it's going in anyway. The introspection abilities are more than worth the extra memory that the name hashes use. (And perl 6's going to be injecting things up-scope in some circumstances, so you can't even tell at compile-time)
