[pmc] Improved WB annotations the first a*-f*.pmc classes

A 2nd eye-pair sees more.

rrot/rurban/pmc2c_orig2-gh1069: 37cb160 | rurban++ | .gitignore:
.gitignore: add local .perldb helper

so that git clean -dxf will not wipe it.
rrot/rurban/pmc2c_orig2-gh1069: 14fda84 | rurban++ | config/auto/pmc.pm:
Improve pmc2c deps for PMC/$class.pm libs

depends only on the really used deps. also sort the deps to generate comparable Makefile
rurban_ I had to rm .project
This is rebased 15:07
16:27 sorear joined 16:32 rurban joined 16:37 Chirag joined
Chirag rurban_ : Hey! 16:37
ya.. t/op/gc.t has started failing again.. 16:38
but t/examples/shootout.t is only failing 3 .. so nothing lost here .. 16:39
and the build is still successful..
rurban_ I got the same. Still a GC bug somewhere (I guess a missing WB, but maybe a wrong one, or one too much) 17:06
dalek website: ZYROz++ | GSoC 2014 - Report 2 17:09

Chirag rurban_: Please take a look at float.pmc .. set_integer_native and set_bool keep calling themselves .. they are annotated with manual_wb as of now .. but I don't see how a WB will get inserted .. 17:13
rurban_ If it calls itself the pmc_reuse which sets the class to Integer failed 17:21
and the manual_wb is okay here, since Integer.set_integer_native does the WB 17:22
same for Boolean/set_bool 17:23
Chirag oh.. I didnt know Integer.set_integer_native gets called.. thats fine then.. 17:24
is this wrong? --> integer.pmc has VTABLE method share() but it is not defined in vtable.tbl 17:29
17:32 sorear joined
Chirag rurban_ : Should I go ahead and add share() at the end of vtable.tbl? Also, should it have a :write annotation? 17:42
rurban_ share is a :write, yes please. add it to the [STORE] :write section 17:48
Chirag ok
rurban_ or wait, better to the MAIN section
Chirag that's at the end.. 17:49
rurban_ it sets an attribute not the value
ah, ok, at the end looks good
17:51 sorear joined
Chirag one more - integer.pmc -> i_add(Integer value) has STATICSELF instead of SELF .. does that behave in the same way as it would have with SELF? 17:55
rurban_ yes. that's the faster version
Chirag fine..
17:57 rurban joined
Chirag I was trying to figure out if YAPC::NA is still possible .. so the waiting time at Hyderabad to get an appointment is 4 days and for processing another 4 days ... It says that "if required",for some cases a maximum of 60 days may be required for administrative processing.. 18:07
rurban hey, great. sent an email to the send a newbie team then. maybe they'll let you in
but they already refused upasana 18:08
Chirag they as in US visa office not TPF right? 18:09
I sent a mail to the visa help desk .. asked them if it was possible in 15 days .. they replied that they can't comment on the time frame.. 18:11
18:14 sorear joined
rurban the TPF first if they want to sponsor your trip 18:23
you can try at least
Chirag hmm.. then I will first contact TPF before I start with the visa process 18:25
rurban you probably win a day by doing both, but the risc is too loose $160 if the TPF says no 18:29
Chirag yes.. and without an invitation I might be rejected straight away.. So no luxury of a visa either.. 18:30
rurban For the US you don't need an invitation, just for Bulgaria it's better 18:34
Chirag I was hoping to get it to make the visa process easier.. 18:35
rurban The TPF should know because they already did it for Upasana 18:38
Just ask Mark
Chirag ya.. I will ask him first.. 18:39

rurban_ new speed record: 10.474970470 for parrot-bench 22:00
rerunning the benchmarks for some latest releases now 22:01
That's 6.6% faster then master 22:04
FROGGS 6.6% is a lot
rurban_ Still an unreliable result, but better than expected. I'll run these again overnight 22:05
I expected something between 4-5%
loadavg 4.43 :) but this run was even faster with an error rate of only 0.96% 22:07
10.305147023 secs now
with the jit it will fly, but slow method calls still suck 22:08
