If you limit your use to modules which don't do runtime requires
you can certainly avoid it.

No need. Just do:

	UserTag calc Routine
	UserTag calc Alias perl

That will make all calc calls go to the perl tag. If you are using
PerlGlobal and not calling a table, there is no real reason not to do
it that way.
