.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This module propagates constant folding for $^O, $^V, and $] variables by
installing custom PL_check handlers for numeric and string comparison opcodes.
In the handlers, references to $^O, $^V, and $] arguments are replaced with
constant terms like "linux", v5.16.1, and 5.016001, respectively.
.SH CAVEATS
.IX Header "CAVEATS"
Since regexp matching is not subject to constant folding, expressions like
\&\f(CW\*(C`$^O =~ /win32/i\*(C'\fR will not be reduced.
