Configure.pl says: --miniparrot Build parrot assuming only pure ANSI C is available To add confusion, the build following a normal config already constructs a miniparrot on the way to building parrot, and I thought we were targetting this level of C across the board? We have several tickets that refer to errors when trying to build with this option. I know the eventual goal was to potentially build a smaller bird, and then use it to construct the full-sized model, but I think we might be better off cleaning house here; We've already pretty much agreed that Perl is going to be a build requirement through 1.0, haven't we? I'm not sure that supporting this option (And having to fix bugs to do it) is worth it. If we can remove this, we can also remove anything in the code that is ifdef'd around MINIPARROT.
