I don't really understand the question. From my point of
view a great deal of the standard Perl environment is developed
in perl, not C. The reverse is true too -- perl depends upon
Perl. Take a look at the *.pl files in the perl source directory.

Are you suggesting a complete re-write of perl into Perl? Maybe
something like scheme48 or the Java compiler?
