Ah, cleanup is perhaps the wrong word here. Jan Dubois will obviously be able 
to give the correct answer. I *think* what happens is that PerlIS has an thread 
ready for an interpreter so that when it needs to process a script a new 
interpreter is started up; it is then discarded at the end of execution.

I experimented with some selective cleanup of namespaces in PerlEx some years 
ago using Symbol::delete_package(). But that brought other problems (mentioned 
in the BUGS section of Symbol) that I didn't overcome at that time (read: the 
cost of doing it was higher that changing the code that needed it ;-)
