I'm coming to the rapid conclusion that C-- is yours. (complicated and fragile
solution.) While Simon Peyton Jones is a storming guy and I appreciate his
work a lot, I don't think that C-- is the answer for Perl.
C-- doesn't have varargs. Or a decent, fast, portable implementation. And we'd
all have to learn C--.
It's a good idea, but it really Isn't There Yet.
