I honestly don't care much about such languages, but how is Parrot going
to support classless languages like JavaScript? Are such languages
going to have to fake it with anonymous classes, or will we make sure
that you don't *really* need a class behind an object?
Fake it with anonymous classes. It ought to work out OK, I think.
