Hm. I'm afraid that is all over my head. Where did you get Perl_sv_dump() from? Cos it doesn't appear to be in any of the docs I have. If I try to use it (on anything) it just crashes. The only relevant reference I've found is this by syphilis, but either form crashes my machine. And so we (I) arrive in that dead-end where most every one of my forays into XS/internals programming ends up. The one where the only option left open is trial&error combined with cargo-culting. The one that always reminds me of the opening lines from the A-team: If your in trouble, and if you can find it, a piece of existing working code that does something sufficiently similar to what you want to do, than you can cargo-cult it and it might work. But it probably won't work everywhere, and is likely to suffer from sporadic and random errors. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
