Devel::TraceLoad seems to be on roughly the right track although it's
rather rough around the edges. It works by replacing
CORE::GLOBAL::require. I assume it's been abandoned though - last
release in 2001, tests fail.

Looks like a reasonable starting point.
Can anyone think of anything wrong with the approach of replacing
require with an instrumented version? If the consensus is that that's
a sensible approach I'll play with tidying up the code.
