I don't think that Iron Perl Monks, Part 1 takes a jab at Princepawn. This post and others don't make fun of Princepawn, they just treat it as what he has become for Perlmonks: a myth, the Fallen Angel of course, purchased by the Saints, the Vilain, he is supposedly dead but the body was never found and he might come back any day.

I would think Princepawn, if he still lurks around here, is probably pretty happy to see his name mentioned as aften as it is.

Just Another Perl Myth
