in reply to Simulating the absence of a module

What exactly are you trying to do?

This sounds as if you have a problem, you've selected a solution, but then come up problems in implementing the solution.

You're trying to 'pretend that certain modules are not available', but if you explain why you're trying to do this (ie, what the original problem was), people might be able to give other, potentially better, alternatives.

    was pretty clear :-)

    Test::Without::Module is one way.

    was quite explanatory.
