+=head1 NAME
+
+overloading - perl pragma to lexically control overloading
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+    {
+	no overloading;
+	my $str = "$object"; # doesn't call stringification overload
+    }
+
+    # it's lexical, so this stringifies:
+    warn "$object";
+
+    # it can be enabled per op
+    no overloading qw("");
+    warn "$object";
+
+    # and also reenabled
+    use overloading;
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This pragma allows you to lexically disable or enable overloading.
+

+=item C<no overloading @ops>
