Getting it into bleadperl is good enough. 5.8.x gets appropriate changes integrated over from bleadperl. I have incomplete knowledge of how xsubpp works, and no time to champion this cause. (To be honest, I've not even thought hugely about it - if the blead pumpking things it's worthy to change the core implementation of xsubpp over to ExtUtils::ParseXS then it's likely to get into 5.8.x if it makes maintenance of 5.8.x easier, but extremely unlikely if it doesn't do 100% of what the current xsubpp does) Nicholas Clark
