>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>.]
