=head1 ABSTRACT
Perl used to use $pkg'var instead of the modern $pkg::var. This is still
in Perl 5. It's gotta go.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
See above.
=head1 IMPLEMENTATION
See above.
=head1 NOTES ON FREEZE
Damian worried that this would mean Klingon.pm would no longer be
portable to Perl 6. He failed to convince other people on the list that
this was actually a bad thing. ;-) (kidding!!)
=head1 REFERENCES
Camel-3 p. 60 reminded me of this.
