Is there a ticket number for this? I'm wondering why...
I should've said "... in favor of calling isa() and can() as methods". It's
just more correct, and lets people use stuff like Test::MockObject with
DateTime.pm.
On the other hand its also slower as its resolved at run time not startup
time, and it has cascade all the way up the @ISA first.
I seriously doubt that this change had a major impact on the speed on
DateTime.pm. Benchmarks to the contrary are welcome ;)
