Octal and Hex Conversions

I don't see any opcodes currently for transforming octal and hexadecimal strings to their integer equivalents. Should there be? This seems like a common language feature (at least for Parrot's target languages). And if there's no opcode, then I have to write the code in PIR. :-) Thanks. -- matt
