I think people are reading into what I said. They are do-able.

(I didn't qualify it further - it's only reliable on (to my knowledge) Linux,
Solaris, and *BSD with /proc mounted so that you can get the full path of
the perl executable if it's been invoked via a relative path)

I participated as little as possible in that perl5-porters thread given that
it seemed to be far more heat than light, and the fastest way to kill it is
to let it burn out.
