25/* AVf_REAL is set for all AVs whose xav_array contents are refcounted.
26 * Some things like "@_" and the scratchpad list do not set this, to
27 * indicate that they are cheating (for efficiency) by not refcounting
28 * the AV's contents.
29 *
30 * AVf_REIFY is only meaningful on such "fake" AVs (i.e. where AVf_REAL
31 * is not set). It indicates that the fake AV is capable of becoming
32 * real if the array needs to be modified in some way. Functions that
33 * modify fake AVs check both flags to call av_reify() as appropriate.
34 *
35 * Note that the Perl stack has neither flag set. (Thus, items that go
36 * on the stack are never refcounted.)
37 *
38 * These internal details are subject to change any time. AV
39 * manipulations external to perl should not care about any of this.
