Hi Parrot-Freaks!
I've used PerlInt instead of PerlString by mistake.
The error occurs if code like this is executed a few times:
(data is a PerlInt)
find_global P1, data
set S1, P1

set P1, S1
It works a few thousend times, then it stops working

# And likewise here on my linux box:

For now, just delete config_h.in from the STICKY_FILES line in
config/gen/makefiles/root.in and re-run Configure.pl
I'm sure Brent will sort it out properly later.

Runtime component for Perl 6, but also a Software CPU / Virtual

Is there a supported way of passing parameters to programs running in an

What about a function(macro?) to support setting registers? Maybe
