It's far too late to make it into 5.8, but it looks like it'll be in
5.10 when that comes out (in a year or two).

I know, and I'm not complaining. I'm just saying that that will
probably give Perl 5 at least a year or two more life.

I hope you're referring to 5.8.x for some x != 0 ??? :-)

Ask Randal to talk about it sometime. ;-) But maybe things are more rigorous now, and it should be 5.8.1. Personally, I'd rather see it sooner than later.
