+If you feel you really do need to use an unlisted variable, first send email to
+L<perl5-porters@perl.org|mailto:perl5-porters@perl.org>. It may be that
+someone there will point out a way to accomplish what you need without using an
+internal variable. But if not, you should get a go-ahead to document and then
+use the variable.

+=for apidoc AmU|Perl_check_t *|PL_check
+
+Array, indexed by opcode, of functions that will be called for the "check"
+phase of optree building during compilation of Perl code. For most (but
+not all) types of op, once the op has been initially built and populated
+with child ops it will be filtered through the check function referenced
+by the appropriate element of this array. The new op is passed in as the
+sole argument to the check function, and the check function returns the
+completed op. The check function may (as the name suggests) check the op
+for validity and signal errors. It may also initialise or modify parts of
+the ops, or perform more radical surgery such as adding or removing child
+ops, or even throw the op away and return a different op in its place.
+
+This array of function pointers is a convenient place to hook into the
+compilation process. An XS module can put its own custom check function
+in place of any of the standard ones, to influence the compilation of a
+particular type of op. However, a custom check function must never fully
+replace a standard check function (or even a custom check function from
+another module). A module modifying checking must instead B<wrap> the
+preexisting check function. A custom check function must be selective
+about when to apply its custom behaviour. In the usual case where
+it decides not to do anything special with an op, it must chain the
+preexisting op function. Check functions are thus linked in a chain,
+with the core's base checker at the end.
+
+For thread safety, modules should not write directly to this array.
+Instead, use the function L</wrap_op_checker>.

+=for apidoc AmUx|Perl_keyword_plugin_t|PL_keyword_plugin
+
+Function pointer, pointing at a function used to handle extended keywords.
+The function should be declared as
+
+ int keyword_plugin_function(pTHX_
+ char *keyword_ptr, STRLEN keyword_len,
+ OP **op_ptr)
+
+The function is called from the tokeniser, whenever a possible keyword
+is seen. C<keyword_ptr> points at the word in the parser's input
+buffer, and C<keyword_len> gives its length; it is not null-terminated.
+The function is expected to examine the word, and possibly other state
+such as L<%^H|perlvar/%^H>, to decide whether it wants to handle it
+as an extended keyword. If it does not, the function should return
+C<KEYWORD_PLUGIN_DECLINE>, and the normal parser process will continue.
+
+If the function wants to handle the keyword, it first must
+parse anything following the keyword that is part of the syntax
+introduced by the keyword. See L</Lexer interface> for details.
+
+When a keyword is being handled, the plugin function must build
+a tree of C<OP> structures, representing the code that was parsed.
+The root of the tree must be stored in C<*op_ptr>. The function then
+returns a constant indicating the syntactic role of the construct that
+it has parsed: C<KEYWORD_PLUGIN_STMT> if it is a complete statement, or
+C<KEYWORD_PLUGIN_EXPR> if it is an expression. Note that a statement
+construct cannot be used inside an expression (except via C<do BLOCK>
+and similar), and an expression is not a complete statement (it requires
+at least a terminating semicolon).
+
+When a keyword is handled, the plugin function may also have
+(compile-time) side effects. It may modify C<%^H>, define functions, and
+so on. Typically, if side effects are the main purpose of a handler,
+it does not wish to generate any ops to be included in the normal
+compilation. In this case it is still required to supply an op tree,
+but it suffices to generate a single null op.
+
+That's how the C<*PL_keyword_plugin> function needs to behave overall.
+Conventionally, however, one does not completely replace the existing
+handler function. Instead, take a copy of C<PL_keyword_plugin> before
+assigning your own function pointer to it. Your handler function should
+look for keywords that it is interested in and handle those. Where it
+is not interested, it should call the saved plugin function, passing on
+the arguments it received. Thus C<PL_keyword_plugin> actually points
+at a chain of handler functions, all of which have an opportunity to
+handle keywords, and only the last function in the chain (built into
+the Perl core) will normally return C<KEYWORD_PLUGIN_DECLINE>.
+
+For thread safety, modules should not set this variable directly.
+Instead, use the function L</wrap_keyword_plugin>.
