So, if assign_pmc isn't subclassable, then setref and set_pmc aren't either. >> Can we add some priority to getting inheritance fixed to the next >> milestone, perhaps 1.2? > > Are you volunteering to work on it?

Blair and I are both working on the Matrixy compiler, so anything that's blocking him is blocking me too. Hopefully we can get a bug or two worked out before the release tomorrow! --Andrew Whitworth _______________________________________________ http://lists.parrot.org/mailman/listinfo/parrot-dev
