    "Tie::NetAddr::IP"), I have taken some artistic liberty to create an
    attribute name. Some tie classes require the use of the return value
    from "tie()" and are as such not directly usable by this mechanism,
    AFAIK.

    No censoring has been done as far as possible; there are several
    attributes that accomplish more or less the same thing. TIMTOWTDI.

    If you want any attribute added or renamed or find any mistakes or
    omissions, please contact me at <marcel@codewerk.com>.

FUNCTIONS
  make_handler
    Generates and evaluates the attribute handler code. It takes the name of
    the attribute to generate, the type of the variable it applies to -
    scalar, array, hash, general variable -, the name of the package that
    implements the "tie()", and the filename where that package lives in.

    It calls one of the "make_tie_*()" functions that provides part of the
    code to generate depending on the tied variable type.

  make_tie_array
    Returns the code line for the tie of a scalar variable that is needed by
    "make_handler()".

  make_tie_hash
    Returns the code line for the tie of an array variable that is needed by
    "make_handler()".

  make_tie_scalar
    Returns the code line for the tie of a hash variable that is needed by
    "make_handler()".

  make_tie_var
    Is more flexible than the other "make_tie_*()" functions in that it
    checks the type of the variable that the attribute is being applied to.

EXAMPLES
        # Tie::Scalar::Timeout
        my $m : Timeout(NUM_USES => 3, VALUE => 456, POLICY => 777);
        print "$m\n" for 1..5;

        # Tie::Hash::Rank
        my %scores : Ranked;
        %scores = (
            Adams   => 78,
            Davies  => 35,
            Edwards => 84,
            Thomas  => 47
        );
        print "$_: $scores{$_}\n" for qw(Adams Davies Edwards Thomas);

        # Tie::FlipFlop;
        my $ff : FlipFlop(qw/Red Green/);
        print "$ff\n" for 1..5;
