It can also refer to the fact that Perl is (somewhat) introspective, like LISP, while C/C++ is not. You can dynamically generate executable code in Perl, because it's interpreted. You cannot do that in C++. (Well, that's not entirely true, but it's close enough for this discussion.)
Hope that helps!
