All these function/method like opcodes will be refactured somewhen.

WRT split (you write):

  PGE::Rule."split"()

in general

  $P0."split"(...)

where $P0 is a namespace or object that "can split". For some bits of
more performance a user could do:

  cl = getclass "String"
  cl."split"(...)

assuming that the current split on strings moves to the String class.

PGE is a Parrot core feature available and usable for all languages
using the Parrot engine.
