I am sublassing Net::DAV::Server here with: 
package Foo;
use base Net::DAV::Server;

1;

[download]
and when the module stays this empty, and I use my Foo module, everything behaves as expected.

But strangely, when I begin to override specific functions of the subclassed module, everything goes awry. For example, 
package Foo;
use base Net::DAV::Server;

sub propfind {
 # copy of the original propfind() from Net::DAV::Server
}

1;

[download]
throws erros when I use it in a wrapping script...

Am I doing anything wrong in terms of subclassing here? The "use base" syntax effectively imports all the functions of the subclassed module into my wrapping Foo.pm, right? Or am I missing something?
