Since the ICU static libs (.as) have C++ inside, we need to link with
a C++-aware linking. Try setting:
link = 'c++'
in config/init/hints/linux.pl and see if that fixes it. The error

Did you turn on debugging? Most of these name mangling and string

Ah. Relikt of Jeff's patch. If that constant got reused elsewhere, e.g.
as a method name, it were one too short.
Confirmed. Thanks, Leo!
Would a test patch such as the following be good to catch regressions,
or should it go elsewhere? If

I'm happy with this.
Good.
What needs to be done before making it the default? I'm anxious to

What's the secret syntax for passing and retriving arrays of things to

extern DECLSPEC void SDLCALL SDL_UpdateRects

That'd be *very* handy to expose.

Ah, at this point Unicode's legacy too. Besides, as long as RAD-50

I suggest Parrot's native character set to be cuneiform.

Since any type potentially has assignment behaviour, it has to be a

I was surprised not to see something like signbit. It's in my

I certainly do!
I'm also curious how to write an interface to an existing event system.
Being able to write it all in PASM is a bonus.

I don't think it can be all-PASM, except maybe (and maybe not...)
