It's only drastic if fixing third-party modules so that they don't use ensure_resources() any more is a viable alternative for you. The ensure_resources() function simply does not reasonably serve the module compatibility goals that are its *raison d'**être*. An ordinary resource declaration is better for that purpose, notwithstanding the fact that it may conflict with another declaration. Furthermore, use of ensure_resources() creates a thorny resource containment problem, whether that's what's actually in play in Shawn's case or not.
