... both of these goals were thrown away without discussion at v1.0.
Oh but they were discussed, my friend. I'm certainly no fan of the unnecessary breaking of bytecode compatibility willy-nilly with every release that goes on now, but the alternative of freezing PBC at Parrot 1.0 was certainly the worst of all of the options.
PBC as it exists now is barely sufficient for Parrot, let alone Perl 6 or Perl 5.
