There has been no further discussion in this RT since Sep 15. While there was a lot of discussion of larger issues, no one picked up the ball and ran with it. So, so as not to leave the OP hanging, I applied the patch with committer's corrections in commit 26d58bfed57736ec1e1f1dfd579484f8b6fcccd7. Marking ticket Resolved. Discussion of larger issues (e.g., lazy loading in general) should be taken to p5p list. Thank you very much. -- James E Keenan (jkeenan@cpan.org) --- via perlbug: queue: perl5 status: open https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=129235
