But that's why I overloaded stringification to contain 'Regexp' instead of 'SCALAR', because we still want ref() to return the classname and we want some way to determine of our blessed object is a Regexp type right?

    Ah. I should have read your code closer. Apologies.

    Nice trick, but I need this to work for any arbitrary classname. This is for a new Data::Dumper module. Er, for that matter Data::Dumper has the same problem: 

    use Data::Dumper;
my $x=bless qr/dedum/,'foo';

print Dumper($x);
__END__
$VAR1 = bless( do{\(my $o = undef)}, 'foo' );
