in reply to No more Perl "compiler"

I'd never even seen the thing work. If it works for you perhaps you'd consider maintaining it? You never commented to my p5p post of several months ago about removing it.

    You're joking, right? Just because I used it successfully as advertised doesn't mean that I'm familiar enough with its internal workings to be able to maintain/fix/improve it. (Otherwise, I would have considered breaking it out as a separate CPAN module.)

    I must have missed it. However, I'm not gainsaying the decision to remove it: If its a failed feature, then it should be removed. My post was meant to inform others of its removal, and to query about possible alternatives.

    Remember: There's always one more bug.

      No, I wasn't joking. I think you're really capable and could do it.

      For your purpose you'd switch to some persistent environment like what you already suggested or pperl.

      No, B::Deparse is fine - for one thing Storable relies on it to serialize CODE references.
