So, what's the prerfered way to use native encodings as a Perl source
code in Perl 5.8? 

It seems that encoding pragma is handy but not feature complete. It
does work on scripts, not on modules. Filter::Util::Call is something
dangerous, and has a problem inside C<eval EXPR> (hence with
Apache::Registry) IIRC.

Is embedding native strings into Perl code considered harmful after
all, and do we need something like native2ascii in Java[1]?
