A possibly related (and more relevant) question for Parrot devs:
is there any reason that FileHandle PMCs do not automatically
flush + close on destruction?
pmichaud@kiwi:~/nom$ cat fh.pir
.sub 'main' :main
$P0 = new ['FileHandle']
$P1 = $P0.'open'('test.txt', 'w')
$P1.'print'("Hello\n")
.end
pmichaud@kiwi:~/nom$ install/bin/parrot fh.pir
pmichaud@kiwi:~/nom$ cat test.txt
pmichaud@kiwi:~/nom$ ls -l test.txt
