+Declare Just C<SP>. This is actually identical to C<dSP>, and declares
+a local copy of perl's stack pointer, available via the C<SP> macro.
+See C<SP>. (Available for backward source code compatibility with the
+old (Perl 5.005) thread model.)

Returns C<TRUE> if given the name of a magical GV.

+=item PL_DBsingle
+
+When Perl is run in debugging mode, with the B<-d> switch, this SV is a
+boolean which indicates whether subs are being single-stepped.
+Single-stepping is automatically turned on after every step. This is the C
+variable which corresponds to Perl's $DB::single variable. See
+C<PL_DBsub>.

+
+Function called by C<do_readline> to spawn a glob (or do the glob inside

+this glob starter is only used by miniperl during the build process.
+Moving it away shrinks pp_hot.c; shrinking pp_hot.c helps speed perl up.
