I want to emulate a packed structure with Parrot in the way a compiler
would normally do this for a low level machine.
It just needs traditional notation for setting fields by offset into
the struct.
I sort of feel that PerlString _could_ handle this, but I'm curious
if there are any gotchas I'm

This is a slightly confused first attempt at a pdd. I'll start to add
extra details over the next couple of days.
Is 8 the right number? And can someone who knows how fix the ones in
the repository to have more meaningful file names?

This is the key.c portion of Jonathan Stowe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'s patch
from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Although there's more work being done on the key stuff and this isn't the
final fix, applying this patch does get parrot to build with two more
compilers, so it's probably worthwhile.

Applied, thanks. I'm not sure I got Josh's ssize_t remove patch
in--I'll go look now.

Of course you will now be able to say:
if ($foo // "" ne "bar") { }

It can't be that confusing at first glance if English dedicates a slot
way up in the huffman table to the word, eh?
print "; "
if ($need_eol but $current_column < 21);
OTOH, this might become an "and grep-not" operator for (was it
Damian?)'s quantum operators:
@y = all(@x) but { /^anti/ }

so... it negates the left side, then ANDs it with the right?
also, it seems to be rather vague to me.
in order to sound clear
I think Perl 6 should have a "but" keyword, as in:
if (defined $foo but $foo eq "") {
}
