Quick status update on the perl YAML modules and the problem of
instantiating objects:

* libyaml-syck-perl has $YAML::LoadBlessed since a long time
* libyaml-libyaml-perl since 0.69 and libyaml-perl since 1.25 have
  added $YAML::LoadBlessed as well
* all three by default set it to 1 

(and YAML::Tiny is not affected as far as I know)

So I guess we have to consider if we're happy with the ability to
turn off loading objects and recommend it to consumers and close the
bugs; or if we want to change the defaults, which means setting
$YAML::LoadBlessed to 0 in all three packages.


Cheers,
gregor
