A "Perlog" [1] module which allows you to do some logic programming
in Perl would be a great module, I presume. IMHO, implementing whole 
Languages inside Perl doesn't seem the way to go. Of course modules
like "Language-Prolog-Interpreter" are nice as toys or proofs of concept,
but if one badly needs BASIC, Prolog or Lisp he should use that languages
directly, try to write an Inline module for the language or try to implement 
missing features (paradigm) into Perl itself ("Perlog" as an idea).
Well, your mileage may vary.

[1] Perlog could be a something like Schelog (Prolog in Scheme without
loosing Scheme);  http://www.cs.rice.edu/CS/PLT/packages/schelog/
