You could store all your variables in one big array, serialize() the
array, and then pass it to Perl as STDIN. In Perl, you can then use Scott
Hurring's implementation[1] of unserialize() to retrieve the data.
Passing data back, again, in Perl bundle the data up into a Perl hash,
serialize() it using Hurring's module, and then print it to STDOUT. PHP
reads the STDOUT and unserializes the data.
Easy peasy.
