The pure Perl implementation is newer, but no less stable.
So what is the reason to continue the XS version, except maybe as a
separate module for the few cases that require speed?
As John said yesterday, the XS version is the reference
implementation and the PP version is a port. The XS version is
already in core for bleadperl, so the PP version exists only for
backward compatibility for people who can't or won't install the XS
version.
