Geoff,
Are you sure the referenced issue is the same one that line is trying
to handle? It appears that the undef vs delete issue is related to
loading Perl modules from disk and managing the %INC cache. The delete
in my patch is about tearing down the stash before the package's
reference is eliminated from %INC. I'm worried we're talking about two
different things. Do you see what I mean?
Cheers,
