Bug#601785: RFP: libsub-call-tail-perl -- Tail calls for subroutines and methods



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : libsub-call-tail-perl
  Version         : 0.04
  Upstream Author : Yuval Kogman <nothingmuch@woobling.org>
* URL             : http://search.cpan.org/~nuffin/Sub-Call-Tail-0.04/
* License         : Perl
  Programming Lang: Perl
  Description     : Tail calls for subroutines and methods

This module provides a tail modifier for subroutine and method calls
that will cause the invocation to have the same semantics as goto &sub.

When the tail modifier is compiled the inner subroutine call is
transformed at compile time into a goto.
