I currently get by just with $[I.N.S.P]nnn symbolic temporaries because I set a flag to use them. At the switch of a flag I can emit code using _XX_<original_var_name>_nnnn, where XX is some helpful info regards type, <original_var_name> is, well, the original var name, and nnnn is a four-digit number I made up to make me fairly happy that imcc won't confuse the local integer i in one routine with the local integer i in another routine, since it is obvious to me that IMCC cannot possibly cope with different scope rules for languages left right and sundry. Personally, I think you should change $ to . if and only if it helps perl (which is not my bag). The rest of us, in the words of Dan, can cope: a little whining is acceptable, if somewhat unbecoming ;-)
