Generally I'd prefer we go either pure perl or vanilla XS. (With my
preference being pure perl) I'm not sure Inline works everywhere (might,
but I've never tried it on VMS). Pure perl's preferable, as we can ship
whatever we need and don't have to force an install of any modules to build
Parrot, and I think that's good at the moment.
