The Parameter.perl method is not producing an expression to construct the
Parameter object. Instead it is producing output intended to be used
in the syntactic context of a signature. Obviously that is a useful
facility, and indeed Signature.perl uses it, but it doesn't belong as
a .perl method. It needs a different name, and there should be a .perl
method that generates an expression.
