Comment (by egall@…):

 I still work on code that depends on 32-bit Carbon, albeit not exactly
 these perl things though... I find Carbon much easier to work with because
 I only know C and not Objective-C (OOP makes no sense to me in general),
 so it's a real shame to see it (Carbon) being moved from the "deprecation"
 stage of its life cycle to the "complete removal" stage... although I
 suppose it's inevitable...
