Not quite authoritative, I'm afraid. :) I'm looking at the new edition of the Stroustroup book, and the very existence of vtables is an implementation detail not guaranteed by the language spec (now that there actually is a language spec for C++). Further, in the example which mentions vetables, each object has a pointer to a vtable which is shared by the entire class. Which is not to say that it couldn't be moted so for Perl . . .
