This is caused by both modules exporting a blessed function by default
and Moose's one sets a prototype.
More generally, it would be nice if any module importing module had a
way to control the exports of those modules.
use Test::Most imports => { Test::Deep => [ foo, bar ], Test::Simple => [buz]}
I was going to suggest that it skip any module that has already been
imported, that way you could do
use Test::Deep qw(foo bar);
use Test::Simple qw(buz);
use Test::Most;
but I can't think of a way to detect that,
