in reply to making arrays that act like hashes at runtime

Pseudohashes are an exprimental feature that was added in 5.005 and are now widely considered to be a mistake. They will be deprecated in 5.8 and removed completely in 5.10. I therefore recommend that you don't use then for any new development.
