Following discussion on #parrot with Infinoid, I created the 'ops2c' branch in our SVN repository to handle refactoring of this area of the build system. You can follow developments there with:
svn co https://svn.perl.org/parrot/branches/ops2c
In that branch, I have applied Infinoid's patch to
lib/Parrot/Ops2c/Utils.pm. On Debian Linux, I have configured, built
and tested through 'make test' and everything is passing.
So, so far, everything is cool. More to come.
