Well, it's definitely overhead. The question is if it's much more overhead than some other function you write to handle checking for key existence and assigning defaults.

Of course, I also whine quite a bit about Perl's awful argument
handling, so I suppose I should buck up and take a look at the module.
I'm just being silly not doing so.

I'd say so, but I'm biased ;)

I'm very much wishing that P::V can disappear entirely in Perl6, and I'm probably going to confirm that on the p6l list, because in the end it's just a nasty hack.
