+=head1 NAME
+
+Devel::BeginLift - make selected sub calls evaluate at compile time
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+  use Devel::BeginLift qw(foo baz);
+  
+  use vars qw($i);
+  
+  BEGIN { $i = 0 }
+  
+  sub foo { "foo: $_[0]\n"; }
+  
+  sub bar { "bar: $_[0]\n"; }
+  
+  for (1 .. 3) {
+    print foo($i++);
+    print bar($i++);
+  }
+  
+  no Devel::BeginLift;
+  
+  print foo($i++);
+

+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Devel::BeginLift 'lifts' arbitrary sub calls to running at compile time
+- sort of a souped up version of "use constant". It does this via some
+slightly insane perlguts magic.
+
+=head2 import
+
+  use Devel::BeginLift qw(list of subs);
+
+Calls Devel::BeginLift->setup_for(__PACKAGE__ => \@list_of_subs);
+
+=head2 unimport
+
+  no Devel::BeginLift;
+
+Calls Devel::BeginLift->teardown_for(__PACKAGE__);
+
+=head2 setup_for
+
+  Devel::BeginLift->setup_for($package => \@subnames);
+
+Installs begin lifting magic (unless already installed) and registers
+"${package}::$name" for each member of @subnames to be executed when parsed
+and replaced with its output rather than left for runtime.
+
+=head2 teardown_for
+
+  Devel::BeginLift->teardown_for($package);
+
+Deregisters all subs currently registered for $package and uninstalls begin
+lifting magic is number of teardown_for calls matches number of setup_for
+calls.
