If you can provide a distance table for these PMCs:
- PerlUndef
- PerlInt
- PerlNum
- PerlString
- Integer

Probably, in general. It's the equivalent of a method cache

Since we're doing this, we need to set up some basic semantics as to
what happens when we add things into the table.
It's pretty simple when dealing with the actual types--put a function
in for an Matrix and an Integer and we should call it when we have a
Matrix and an Integer. The more interes
