With the 334 infrastructure, the -o option to generate a linkable object
from a perl program/library (RFC 121) will be most do-able: "specially
attributed" functions get put in the .h file and linker symbol table,
and normal functions still require conversion to/from PerlData before
calling.
It would be nice to add as much automatic conversion as possible based
on information in prototypes. A C++ programmer could define some conversions
from the types in their strongly typed compiled type system to the PerlData types,
for instance.
