The following code shows that Class::Delegation does two things wrong. It masks the real exception and it misreports the exception as a non-existant table method. So what's a perl hacker to do? Write all my delegation code manually and toss C::D?

$w = wrapper->instance;
$w->table;
# Dies with the error "Could not delegate wrapper::table"

package wrapper;
sub instance {
    return bless { schema => database->new() }, shift();
}
sub schema { $_[0]->{schema} }
use Class::Delegation
    send => '-ALL',
    to => 'schema';

package database;
sub new { bless {}, shift() }
sub table { $_[0]->column }
sub column { die "Some exception" }
