Name        : perl-UNIVERSAL-isa
Product     : Fedora 8
Version     : 0.06
Release     : 4.fc8
URL         : http://search.cpan.org/dist/UNIVERSAL-isa/
Summary     : Hack around module authors using UNIVERSAL::isa as a function
Description :
Whenever you use "isa" in UNIVERSAL as a function, a kitten using
Test::MockObject dies. Normally, the kittens would be helpless, but
if they use UNIVERSAL::isa (the module whose docs you are reading),
the kittens can live long and prosper.

This module replaces UNIVERSAL::isa with a version that makes sure
that if it's called as a function on objects which override isa,
isa will be called on those objects as a method.

In all other cases the real UNIVERSAL::isa is just called directly.
