Would anyone be inconvenienced if the set_pmc vtable and the setref and deref opcodes were removed? Note that if you are using set _pmc but are not using assign_pmc, then you may not be inconvenienced because right now the default assign_pmc vtable calls set_pmc.
These opcodes were added to make transparent references possible, but they weren't really specced out or desisign ed properly. As such, they're a little broken and we'd like to remove them. -- Matt Diephouse http://matt.diephouse.com
