Bad idea as this may be, it is actually required in some cases.
Specifically, if I am running an Apache server with mod_perl, I would
like different scripts to able to refer to conflicting versions of the
DB_File or Storable modules. Actually, that is even useful in a
conversion script...
Now, I would not mind if this required some ClassLoader-like trickery
- if doesn't have to be easy, but it should be possible.
