One solution is to rename all constants to be prefixed with SAC_, make 
*those* importable with :constants, and for a while the unprefixed ones 
importable as well with :old_constants. This might be the cleanest solution.

Note that you can also:

*Your::Package::SAC_URI = \&CSS::SAC::LexicalUnit::URI;

to get an alias usable locally as SAC_URI.
