in reply to B::Deparse question

Why does code contain
tr///;

update: Perhaps the reason is just that, to cause B::Deparse to not work. We now have a defense against those killjoy deobfuscator sorts who would arm themseleves with nothing but B::Deparse in the war against obfuscated code. And it's really quite stealthy too:

y;;; y yyy y,,, tr,,, tr sss
Well, you get the idea.
