in thread Templating pod generation?

This is a runtime cost at best, the information can't be viewed statically and I think there was at least some griping that this uncovers a bug in some parts of the debugger (since fixed in 5.9 and maybe 5.8.8). I'll stick to my eval, thank you. That works as well as can be had in perl5 without macros or tt.

    It's not really a bug in the debugger, just a stupid backwards compatibility problem that you can set $^P to avoid.

    the information can’t be viewed statically

    Err, agreed. So how would do view the eval’ed code statically?

    Makeshifts last the longest.

      From B::svref_2object! Usually this doesn't matter but it's still nice to leave this information in your program for use by other tools.
