You must compile the calls only once, is clearly stated in the
documentation, so this is not an important issue.

The compilation will create very nasty trees with closures and code
references.  There were a number of Perl-internal reference counting
bugs fixed in recent perls, and there are probably more to fix.

Besides, I do use 'weaken' on some crucial places, but probably not all
of them.  Debugging is a hell and it will only help people who do not
use the module as desinged.

If you have patches, I will apply them.
