15 This module propagates constant folding for $^O, $^V, and $] variables
16 by installing custom PL_check handlers for numeric and string
17 comparison opcodes. In the handlers, references to $^O, $^V, and $]
18 arguments are replaced with constant terms like "linux", v5.16.1, and
19 5.016001, respectively.

22 Since regexp matching is not subject to constant folding, expressions
23 like "$^O =~ /win32/i" will not be reduced.
