This is one of the things I know I don't understand. I've not yet read
Simon and Tim's book on extending and embedding perl, but I'm reasonably
confident that the perl pods aren't clear on this sort of stuff.

Specifically:

Who owns what on the stack
How to make references to things without leaking
How to make 2 (or more) level data structures without leaking
When you need to make things mortal, and why
