Summary
unicode_strings, multibyte encoded I/O,bigint,bignum, andbigrat.representative partial support, or an explicit source/JVM boundary.
Key findings
unicode_strings,bigrat, and representative multibyteseek/tell/truncatebehavior pass on native Perl and both PerlOnJava backends.bigintloses precision in the interpreter; the interpreterbignumprobetimes out. The JVM backend passes both basic probes.

Verification
./jperland./jperl --interpreter, each witha timeout and captured output.
