Subject: Storable can't store FORMAT references
FORMAT is a core reference type. Maybe Storable should be capable of coping with it. Currently: $ perl5.8.0 -MStorable -lwe 'format FOO = ' -e '.' -e .' -e '$'$a = *FOO{FORMAT}; print ref $a; $b = Storable::freeze $a' Name "main::b" used only once: possible typo at -e line 3. FORMAT Can't store FORMAT items at ../../lib/Storable.pm (autosplit into ../../lib/auto/Storable/_freeze.al) line 282, at -e line 3 (Yes, I did have to jump through lots of hoops to even create a FORMAT reference)
