[Chicago-talk] what are these symbol table entries?

In the symbol table there are entries like:

$_<.\win32.c = '.\win32.c'
$_<perllib.c = 'perllib.c'
$_<C:/Perl1004/lib/auto/Data/Dumper/Dumper.dll =
'C:/Perl1004/lib/auto/Data/Dumper/Dumper.dll'

I assume they are files either compiled into the executable or autoloaded,
but why are they there? What is the purpose of having those entries at
runtime?

Regards,
Sean
