use Package::Alias shortname => 'very::long::packagename';

Perfect! Thanks for the suggestion. Thanks also to ikegami for the souped up version of Package::Alias (more than I want to use at the moment, but something to remember for the future) and to Tanktalus for the clever abuse of 'can' (which returns a ref to the sub if it exists).	[reply]
