SPUG: Sub Attributes

I am indeed using 5.6.1, but my example doesn't work. But even if it did,
what would it do?
For example, Apache::AxKit::XSP::Language::SimpleTaglib uses a prototype of:
sub some_tag : attrib(id) attribOrChild(some-param) node(result)
keepWhitespace;
Apparently these attributes reformat the datastructures coming in and going
out, but how?

What version of Perl are you using ...
I read somewhere that the sub attributes first appeared in version 5.6.1. In
prior versions you can accomplish the same thing using "use attributes".
I have not used these before either, but your example looks correct to me.
