After spending a while digging into this, I can't explain why it's a problem,
but I know that it is and I know how to fix it.

During the development of Bug 23112 I encountered a weird problem whereby
adding "use Illrequests" to C4/Circulation.pm causes the whole of the app to
break with the following error:

Bareword "Koha::ArticleRequest::Status::Pending" not allowed while "strict
subs" in use at /home/koha-koha/kohaclone/Koha/Patron.pm line 811.
Bareword "Koha::ArticleRequest::Status::Processing" not allowed while "strict
subs" in use at /home/koha-koha/kohaclone/Koha/Patron.pm line 811.

The reference to "preferences.pl" is a red herring and just reflects the page
you're on at the time. The rest of the error is the same regardless of the
page.

Poking around, I've not been able to determine why the usage of Illrequest in
Circulation.pm would cause Patron.pm to suddenly complain about
Koha::ArticleRequest::Status::* calls being barewords. With Modern::Perl the
strict subs pragma should catch that sort of stuff. So I've really got no idea
what's going on.

Anyway, the obvious fix is to add "use Koha::ArticleRequest::Status;" to
Patron.pm, which is what the patch for this bug is going to do. I just wish I
understood why it's a problem in the first place!
