This is the way I'd go. It seems like O/B does everything you need. Just
yank the code out of there and re-tool it for what you need. No point
going through the XS interface to get at your own internals...

In the end, I'm not sure what happens to O/B. I don't think it works
anymore, since Parrot isn't actually something you can reverse-engineer
into Perl fully. At the very least it would have to be re-tooled
severely.
