Are you trying to save memory by storing various different kinds of PMC's in "cappy". What is a "cappy" ?

Mostly just a cute name for "capture", but it's also going to hold the return value... All that chunk of the code is doing is building a capture to pass, and that it will then obtain the return value from. Avoids using stuff like Parrot_ext_call, which gives a speed win (though the fact that 6model locates a v-table override way faster than Parrot's own object implementation does is probably even more of a speed win).
