'morph' was added specifically for the Perl 5 behavior of changing types
when assigned to. But really, a more accurate

Not a string, a PMC (like Coke said). String type names are almost as

sure how heavily PGE is using morph. We may need both integer and PMC

We've been ripping out morph in all the core PMCs too. So, I'm

Thanks,

Even if the morph opcode isn't used often, the morph VTABLE interface
is used

I guess I don't know what people are talking about here with copy.
But, I would be hesitant to remove morph in order to rely on some

Okay, I did some work on this last night, and here's the current status.
