ITP: libclass-perl -- Alias for __PACKAGE__
 

Is this really something worth packaging? Is this a module required
for something else?

To be honest, being too lazy to type __PACKAGE__ (and preferring
$CLASS instead) seems like a silly reason to have a module, even if it
is written by the great Michael Schwern :)

Cheers,

Jonathan
