We decided that this made debugging much easier. A stack dump where
everything is anonymous is impossible to wade through.
You should solve your immediate problem by adding a "log_name" field to
your class' metaclass, default it to the normal name, and then make
create_anon_class copy the log_name from the parent. That way, you can
just say $instance->meta->log_name and always get the right answer
... no messy heuristics required. If you have questions, please ask on
#moose :)
