So then the next question becomes: Do I refactor everything into
proper perl modules and get rid of all of that foreign_call stuff?
This would take quite some time and add no functionality and would
certainly break things requiring lots of debugging and preferably unit
testing written before we started that business so we would even know
what we broke. On the other hand, dealing with all that cruft just
because the dude didn't know modules pains me and there have got to be
some advantages to perl's module system that we are missing out on
here.
