in thread [RFC] Stringifying a thread

'==' is alreadly overloaded for threads, therefore overload.pm is already loaded. As a result, adding ""-overloading doesn't cost anything extra.
Then you can disregard everything I said, except that you may want to switch to using the XS OVERLOAD: keyword.

    The XS OVERLOAD: keyword is not applicable here because the consensus is to make the overloading optional. Therefore, it must be done in the 'import' method in threads.pm. Thanks for the suggestion though.

    Remember: There's always one more bug.
