For us at least, there's far more "plain perl" in our 
Construct/Conscript files than there are calls to cons methods.  I have 
about 3400 lines of Cons-related stuff, of which about 200-300 lines (a 
guess) are actual Cons calls, and the rest are perl.  So unless the 
migration tool could convert arbitrary perl code to python, it wouldn't 
help all that much.

Although a tool that just removes all semicolons and $ signs would be a 
good start ;-) :-)
