Perhaps this is a known issue...
Most parrot programs seem to crash on x86 when the latest CVS parrot

The programs appear to run to completion and only crash prior to exitting.
Repeatable on both Cygwin and Linux x86.

Hello all,
While writing the "getting started" guide, I was playing with the tests.

I don't see why it couldn't just be:
use Acme::1.0;
After all, we don't have package names starting with numbers right now...

Hi there,
I just discovered that:
a) my befunge interpreter is broken (would you stop beaking it please? :o))
b) push and pop operations are now supported by lists
c) there's a pmc for handling list of integers: intlist
I'll get back to point a) later when I'll have investigated it.
