It doesn't matter what you specify - specifying T_CRAP will work just as
well.
The problem is that there's some shonkiness in Registry.xs. Earlier
versions of EU::ParseXS didn't worry about it, but more recent versions do.
I've been using the following patch to Registry.xs:

I don't remember if I came up with that myself, or whether it was
someone else. (If it was me that wrote it, then it might still be shonky.)
Anyway, with that patch applied the idiotic 'no typemap entry' error
goes away.
Cheers,
