OK, when will we get set P0[2], P2? Is it because the semantics aren't
defined yet? Do we copy or leave references? I really need

i found some strange behaviour in perlarray.pmc
Consider this code:
new P0, .PerlArray, 2 # P0[2]
set P0, 2, 1 # P0[2] = 1
set P0, -4, 1 # P0[-4] = 1
# Above runs some strange code:
# ix += SELF->cache.int_val
# where ix is our key
# i
