.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
The autobox::dump pragma adds, via the autobox pragma, a method to
normal expression (such as scalars, arrays, hashes, math, literals, etc.)
that produces a human/perl readable representation of the value of that
expression.

Has all the issues Data::Dumper has.
.PP
This pragma errs on the side of human readable to the detriment of
Perl readable. In particular it uses the terse and deparse options
of Data::Dumper by default. These options may create code that cannot
be eval'ed. For best eval results, set options to \f(CW\*(C`qw/Purity/\*(C'\fR.
Note, this turns off coderef dumping.
