Are you taking full account of what sort of magic may be performed between
the two statements? :)
Urgh:
my Foo $foo;
my Bar $bar;
$foo := $bar; # Compile-time error?
Also, Foo might change its nature, be replaced, import new methods from
somewhere else, change its inheritance tree, or ... This is Perl - anything
could happen, and often does.
