These were fixed in parrot cvs a while ago.

These are fixed in Parrot CVS. Though I don't know, if ponie uses it

Yes, the parrot subdirectory of ponie is direct from cvs.perl.org
It's the perl subdirectory that is an import from a little while back
(of 5.9.0)

I assume that the ponie snapshot was made soon after a cvs up on the parrot
directory, but this may not be.
