Some years ago I introduced a kludge in embed.fnc to mark a function as experimental to keep it out of perlapi, so that it was less likely to be used by people outside core. I now realize it would have been better to have a new flag to indicate that the item was intended only for core use. (ISTR sprout realized that some time ago, but after the change had already been made) I am now in the process of making this new flag. I have found many functions that I'm confident were marked experimental only for the purposes I mentioned above, but there are another 150 that I'm unsure of. Please examine the list below and let me know your take on them. You can use #irc to avoid the email overhead if you wish. I think that after this is done, anything that is still marked as experimental and part of the API should go in perlapi. This would catch the new parse_subsignature() function properly, as I believe it's designed for XS writers, but has to be marked as experimental.
