The attached patch makes "Package->$method" and "$obj->$method" call
"&{}" overloading on $method whenever present.
In that case, it is equivalent to "Package->$ret" and "$obj->$ret",
where $ret is the value returned from the overloading callback ; except
when $ret is a scalar reference, in which case $$ret is used as the
method name.
This allows to define object-oriented lexical methods that aren't
necessarily blessed code references.
If nobody has objected to it, I'll push it tuesday evening.
Vincent.
