Doug didn't remember why he said we shouldn't implement it 2 years ago. The 
current implementation is at least twice faster than the mp1's implementation 
(it now uses apr_ API) and at least four times faster than the pure perl 
implementation. It now also allows you to get untainted SV if you know what 
you are doing (useful for internal use, e.g. in registry scripts). By default 
it returns tainted data as before.
