I have no idea why "p5p" in my aliases file was an alias for p6l.

Clearly I have my own problem with aliases.  Sorry for the noise.

lexical aliases in 5.10?

2007-05-26 Thread Ricardo SIGNES 

perl591delta lists this todo for 5.10:

  Allow lexical aliases (maybe via the syntax "my \$alias = \$foo".

I seem to recall some discussion of this, but not any specifics, and lazy
Googling wants me to think it was all in 2002.  It doesn't seem to be
implemented.

Was this put off until a future version?
