   init_cache
	   Invalidate the T::B object cache. Used only in tests when e.g. we change the encoding
	   settings and therefore must force a re-read of the data

   TBSIG
	    Signal handler to catch fatal Text::BibTex SEGFAULTS. It has bugs
	    and we want to say at least something if it coredumps

   extract_entries
	  Main data extraction routine.
	  Accepts a data source identifier, preprocesses the file and then
	  looks for the passed keys, creating entries when it finds them and
	  passes out an array of keys it didn't find.

   create_entry
	  Create a Biber::Entry object from a Text::BibTeX object

   cache_data
	  Caches file data into T::B objects indexed by the original
	  datasource key, decoded into UTF8

   preprocess_file
	  Convert file to UTF-8 and potentially decode LaTeX macros to UTF-8

   parsename
	   Given a name string, this function returns a Biber::Entry::Name object
	   with all parts of the name resolved according to the BibTeX conventions.

	   parsename('John Doe')
	   returns an object which internally looks a bit like this:

	   { firstname	   => 'John',
	     firstname_i   => ['J'],
	     lastname	   => 'Doe',
	     lastname_i    => ['D'],
	     prefix	   => undef,
	     prefix_i	   => undef,
	     suffix	   => undef,
	     suffix_i	   => undef,
	     namestring    => 'Doe, John',
	     nameinitstring => 'Doe_J',
	     strip	    => {'firstname' => 0,
				'lastname'  => 0,
				'prefix'    => 0,
				'suffix'    => 0}
	     }
