Some error checks (I think it's time for a dedicated type test file)

=head1 NAME

Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union - A union of Moose type constraints

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This metaclass represents a union of Moose type constraints. More 
details to be explained later (possibly in a Cookbook::Recipe).

This actually used to be part of Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint, but it 
is now better off in it's own file. 

=head1 METHODS

This class is not a subclass of Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint, 
but it does provide the same API

=head2 Empty or Stub methods

These methods tend to not be very relevant in 
the context of a union. Either that or they are 
just difficult to specify and not very useful 
anyway. They are here for completeness.

=head1 BUGS

All complex software has bugs lurking in it, and this module is no 
exception. If you find a bug please either email me, or add the bug
to cpan-RT.
