I suggest looking at the source for "perlcc" as a possible starting
point; more information can be found here:
http://search.cpan.org/~nwclark/perl-5.8.9/utils/perlcc.PL
I recall that there was a project (or two) on SourceForge for
compiling Perl code to binaries as well, but I don't recall what they
were called.
Also, do look at what's going on with Perl 6 and the bytecode ideas,
as it may provide you with additional helpful insight.
I hope that helps.
