True. I think the weasel formula I prefer here is a bit different. It 
might be reasonable to say something along the lines of:
   To the extent it is prevented by the Perl Safe module, there is no   way provided to access internals of the
databaseserver process or   to gain OS-level access with the permissions of the server process,   as a C function can
do.
