Some discussion of this topic is on the parrot-dev mailling list, starting at: [http://lists.parrot.org/pipermail/parrot-dev/2009-April/002158.html]
(The thread continues into the beginning of the next month, here at
[http://lists.parrot.org/pipermail/parrot-dev/2009-May/002162.html] and [http://lists.parrot.org/pipermail/parrot-dev/2009-May/002172.html].)

I have tentatively assigned this ticket a milestone of 1.4, the next "supported" release. If indeed version 1.4 is to be packaged and widely distributed, then it would be nice to clear up such issues beforehand.
