Rperl, for example, only worked because it removed the deep magick from Perl.

I'm no expert in this but according to the RPerl kickstarter page an "RPerl v3.0 High-Magic Serial Compiler For Linux" would cost $30k. Does that (High-Magic) mean it would be a fully-functional Perl that would "run up to 200 times faster than pure Perl, with full backward compatibility" like current RPerl? If so, what do you think would happen if we did have a drop in replacement for perl that's as fast as C++? I ask because that sounds like a good deal, and I can secure the funding.
