since the pdd isn't clear on the return value from get_class when a

a PMCNULL be returned instead of an exception.
Works for me, that's what the internal code was doing already. Changed
in the pdd15oo branch r21759, with the return value noted in PDD 15. (It
also shortens the implementation of the 'get_class' opcode down to 2
lines of code, which is nice.)
$P0 = get_class 'STMQueue' # or ['STMQueue']
unless null $P0 goto done
class = newclass 'STMQueue' # or ['STMQueue']
Is now the correct idiom to use for checking if a class exists.
