>From PDD17: =item subtype [deprecated] UINTVAL subtype(INTERP, PMC* self, INTVAL type) Return the subtype of a PMC. (Note that this may be unimplemented, and may go away). This is intended to return information about the PMC--what type of number or string it is, whether it's a scalar, hash, array, or list, and suchlike things. [This can be adequately handled by C<does> and C<inspect>.] -- Will "Coke" Coleda
