Comment(by whiteknight):
I created the branch tt_1449 to look into this issue and committed a
potential fix in r44021. My fix was to allow ANY type as a potential key,
so long as it responds to the VTABLE_get_string call. Only a Key PMC can
be used to obtain nested NameSpaces.
If this fix is correct, we need to add tests for the new behavior, add a
node in DEPRECATED.pod about the potentially experimental status of the
behavior, and merge the branch to trunk after the 2.1 release.
