cloning precompiled parsers or mixing with non-precompiled

Damian,

It seems that the namespace for pre-compiled parsers
(ie. compiled into a perl module) have hard-coded
namespaces (IE. namespace00001).  I was trying to
clone one of these parsers by calling its 'new'
method, but each parser is sharing the same namespace
and thus any global variables I have in that namespace
within a startcode block of my grammar before the
first rule get overwritten by the other corresponding
parser.  I assume this is not a problem for parser
objects created directly from RecDescent directly
since it seems to increment its 'namespace' variable
every time 'new' is called.  The grammar I am using is
huge (ie. the precompiled grammar module files are
almost 5MB), so I really want to use precompiled
grammars.  If I mix a large, single pre-compiled
grammar with some smaller grammar objects which I
create directly from RecDescent, I suspect this is
still going to be a problem since the first smaller
grammar object will still share the same namespace as
the large precompiled grammar?

BTW Damian, I don't know if you have had time lately
to view the posts here, but when you do, there are a
few of my posts that I could use some answers on. :)

Cheers,

Dave Mc
