Perl to be rewritten in c++ ?

"So, we're left with C++. It's rather like the comment that I believe
Winston Churchill is reported to have said about democracy: It's
absolutely the worst system except for all the others. So, C++ is the
worst language we could have chosen, except for all the others."

Be afraid -- be very afraid.
