Except for the obvious syntax and that YAML might be easier to read for
"end users" that just happen to edit a config file, I guess there's none.
AFAIK, YML has a notation for references (i.e., let one node of the
document refer to another), too. So it all depends on the parser.
I'm not sure whether evaluating perl code would be fast than parsing YML,
but for a config file, I guess it wouldn't make much of a difference.
