Arthur, please let's quietly talk about possible issues.

Many libraries that you want to use, demand that you call
"The_lib_init(bla)". This isn't inappropriate, it's a rule. (dot).
Parrot is GC based. (dot).

This imposes different semantics for embedders. I've listed four
different very simple ways to not get your PMC collected to early.

GC and refcounting are different schemes to achieve the same thing. You
know that. But nethertheless you have to follow these GC specific rules.
