Hello.

Currently "constant" PMC/STRINGs are poor-man-generational-gc-old-objects. They are causing a lot of pain because requies very special handling on any stage of GC implementor (e.g. me). I propose to deprecate them all together.

This (probably) doesn't require deprecation cycle due pure internal usage of such "zombie PMCs".
