=head1 CAVEATS
The restrictions on the type (being either a defined package name or a constant) apply even if you use the C<'as'> option to redirect to another package, and are unlikely to find a workaround as this happens deep inside the lexer - far from the reach of an extension.
=head1 DEPENDENCIES
-L<perl> 5.8, L<XSLoader>.
+L<perl> 5.8.1.
+
+A C compiler.
+This module may happen to build with a C++ compiler as well, but don't rely on it, as no guarantee is made in this regard.
+
+L<XSLoader> (standard since perl 5.006).
