PDL::NiceSlice is not polluting the namespace. It is warping
things from an external dimension. That is the problem with
source filters.
The good news, is you can turn off NiceSlice temporarily, or
just not use it. See 'help slice' for syntax to use without
NiceSlice.
I would also recommend submitting a bug report to sf.net. It
is possible that the source filter can be improved not to give
a false positive for your example.
