A more radical proposition would be to declare that @DB::args will always
return empty for signature subs.
@DB::args has always been broken by design. Due to the stack not being ref
counted, it has a habit of returning freed or reallocated SVs, and will
also do things like return '2' when queried in the middle of this sub
call:
sub foo { $_[0]++; ... }
my $i = 1;
foo($i);
We can always add it back later (which is easier than taking it away
later).
