Overload Solution

[mjd-perl-pm@plover.com]

It turns out that the `overload' package provides a function
overload::StrVal, which returns that string value that would have been
returned by the stringization of its argument in the absence of
overloading.  This is just what I needed.  

Thanks very much, John!
