Well, audreyt wanted to have this feature. But you are right: it's a bad
thing, not so much for it's magic, but becaus of the ctx member in
Parrot_sub. The Sub PMC ought to be read/only and sharable across threads
and
ctx violates this.
Sounds good to me. But in that case, outer_ctx is not much better
. . . but that's probably a much bigger job.
In any case, I discovered that Lua fails ~300 test cases with this
patch. So, if we still consider it worth dropping this feature, it
might be better to give it a period of deprecation before we break it
permanently. How does this sound?
