 An attribute handler was specified with an C<:ATTR(I<ref_type>)>, but the

 A handler for attributes of the specified name I<was> defined, but not

 to apply a C<VAR> attribute handler to a subroutine, or a C<SCALAR>
 attribute handler to some other type of variable.

 attribute with an all-lowercase name might have a meaning to Perl
