In this case I assume the function can either be Perl5 or Parrot? Sounds like a custom PMC to me. Given the PMC that could stash function pointers and correctly dispatch gets/sets you have the option of writing a PNI method for setting the stashed routine from C or we have to add a call to the extension API to stash a raw pointer.

The function is a C function. And yes it is a custom PMC which I have already created.
Dan pointed out the unmanagedstruct.pmc which but I fail to see how that would help me, I think we need an external API for stashing raw pointers.
(I don't know what PNI is, but I assume it is to execute bytecode from C and I do not want to do that).
