Hi,
first of all, thanks for reading! :-)
Most things I wrote so far, I got from several sources, like the Parrot
FAQ.

I've started now the final changes to switch to variable-sized register
frames. And while I've said that no JIT code will break, this is only
true for correct and well-behaved JIT code.
About a year ago the base-pointer (interpreter->ctx.bp) for register
addressing was introduced and src/jit.c

This patch provides pcre.imc with the correct DLL name for libpcre,
enabling the pcre.t tests to pass.
Note: This patch has #37481 as a prerequisite to provide the correct osname.

Hey all,
I was messing around with GraphViz today and wrote a quick hack to
autogenerate class diagrams using the reflective capabilities of the
metamodel prototype. I put some of the more interesting diagrams
online, you can view them here:

Darren,
Your problem reminds me of the "Expression Problem", which is
something that IIRC Luke's Theory idea was trying to solve. Here is
the link to a paper Luke referred me to on the subject:
