=head1 BUGS/CAVEATS

Because this should be useful in all sorts of environments such as
back to perl 5.008, we often can not make use of newer Perlisms nor can we
I<require> by default all of the modules, say for data printing, stack
inspection, or interactive terminal handling. That said, if you have a
newer Perl or the recommended modules or install plugins, you'll get
more.

Although modular, this program is even larger than C<perl5db> and so
it loads a little slower. I think part of the slowness is the fact
that there are over 70 or so (smallish) files (rather than one nearly
10K file) and because relative linking via L<rlib> is used to glue
them together.
