+=head2 Creating and calling an anonymous subroutine in C

+As we've already shown, L<perl_call_sv> can be used to invoke an
+anonymous subroutine.  However, our example showed how Perl script

+done inside our C code:

+ SV *cvrv = perl_eval_pv("sub { print 'You will not find me cluttering any namespace!' }", TRUE);
+
+ ...
+
+ perl_call_sv(cvrv, G_VOID|G_NOARGS);

+L<perlguts/perl_eval_pv> is used to compile the anonymous subroutine, which
+will be the return value as well.  Once this code reference is in hand, it
+can be mixed in with all the previous examples we've shown.
