handy.h has things in it like:

  C_ARRAY_LENGTH

which are used by Devel::NYTProf for example.

Much, much older Perls don't have this macro.

Is handy.h public API? Should these things be used by CPAN Modules or is
Devel::NYTProf special?

Should I copy them into Devel::PPPort?

C_ARRAY_LENGTH/C_ARRAY_END are certainly easy enough to implement...

Thanks,
