(You'll probably want to know that "get_base_global" has a slight object-
orientation connotation from my C++ experience; in C++, a superclass is
called a "base class". Whether this matters depends entirely on whether
slight C++ semantic bleed is likely to interfere with the Parrot user base;
and even I must admit that the answer is probably "no".)
IIRC, "base class" predates C++. So you may have stolen this from C++,
but C++ stole it from somebody else, so no need to feel guilty. ;-}
