I would not have suggested such a thing. Tail call optomization in parrot should be about the same logical semantics as perl5's goto &subname (except maybe being faster).
No it shouldn't. Tail call optimization is far more useful in the case of:
sub foo {
# do something
bar();
}or
sub foo {
# do something
foo();
}than in perl's "goto &foo" feature, if for no other reason (and there are other reasons) than it's far more common.
