Subject: pre-Alpha copies of IO::Scalar/IO::ScalarArray available

These are proposed modules to allow you to perform standard
IO::Handle operations on scalars (IO::Scalar) and arrays of
scalars (IO::ScalarArray).  That is, you can print to them,
read from them, use getline/getlines, seek/tell, etc. 

Current implementations are bare minimum, and missing some
functionality: at this point, I'm looking for comments.
Especially comments of the form "pleeeeeeeeeease release this
code to the CPAN"...    :-}

Test code at the bottom of each module.  
Knock yourselves out.
