Aaron,

It is not kosher to use the stack macros when setting up the stack to call
back into Perl. Read the perlcall manpage and the perlapi manpage for the
proper howto. I know that I do this in the Cookbook, but I was wrong. A
future version of Inline may have better macros to fix this.

Cheers, Brian
