## It may seem simpler just to clone the top-level reference and

## to prevent the problem of overwriting code, which is not
## preserved with a cloning operation.
##
## Obviously (or maybe not) if you pass a top-level array which
## happens to contain a code reference, you are going to lose it.
## But code references which are in non-localized hash keys will
## survive.
