So the "typed undef" doesn't get built or inserted or whatever until some
reference is made to the object?

  my Dog $spot;
  my Dog $rover;

At this point, no calls have been made to the 'default undef constructor',
right?

  $spot = $rover.clone();

At this point, $rover gets typed-undef, then cloned?
