Is there a reason you went for a deque instead of a stack?  I can
definitely see the need for a _PMC_ deque (unshift on the current
PerlArray implementation blows), and for an integer _stack_ (regexes), but
not for an int-only deque.  I'm assuming you have a reason for this, which
I have not yet discovered, and I'm curious what it is.
