Beware of dependencies between shared objects. Let's assume 2 chunks of
core functionality are seperated off into say A.so and B.so. This will
work fine as long as there are no interdependencies between A.so and
B.so. Let's however assume A.so needs to call something in B.so. That

Righto. I'll coach Sumesh through how to post an RFC properly, and how
to check whether something's in Perl yet or not.
DO NOT fill -language with discussions of these pseudo-RFCs. Please.

Perl already *was* PEARL. Way back when. Larry changed it *to* Perl
