Sub::Exporter::Lexical has definitely proved interesting. The scope does not extend to use packages such as Parallel::Forker. I did not think it would but I was hopeful :). But, I was able to sub-class Parallel::Forker and Parallel::Forker::Process and was able to implement fork using Sub::Exporter::Lexical

One of the designed limitations of Sub::Exporter::Lexical is that is only exports subroutines. So, I am checking into some of the other Lexical modules available on CPAN

Thanks for the pointer to Sub::Exporter::Lexical.
