Not so, I'm afraid: compilation to bytecode, C, or whatever anybody else
cares to write a back-end for, is slated to be released in 5.005.  There's
an alpha-test releae of a compiler module for 5.003, but I have seen no
reports either way about its compatibility with 5.004.  Information about,
and source for, the compiler can be found somewhere under
http://www.perl.com.
