I just checked in a small patch that allows Jako to start
grokking PMCs. For example:

use sys;
var pmc foo;
foo = new PerlUndef;
foo = "Hello, world!\n";
sys::print(foo);

I think languages/ (besides imcc) should probably be
exempt of freezes unless Parrot depends on said language
to build/function.

Just my 2 cents.

Thanks!

Its of only limited utility until I get the key stuff
working, but I was tired of having a null PMC story
for Jako.

IIRC, that has been the policy during previous freezes.

However, I can stop tinkering if its getting in anyone's
way or on anyone's nerves...

Some smilies and a "SCNR" must have been lost. The change was small,
doesn't break anything and wouldn't be of any harm, *if* we had a
feature freeze.
Sorry for the confusion.

No problem. I saw the smiley, but SCNR was new to me.
