	Which again doesn't seem like an Expect bug, per se. However,
if it's not defined here it's likely not going to work later either, so
it might as well toss up some sort of error code, or at least return undef.
	I would suggest ways to debug this, but I'm not really that familiar
with the autoloading mechanism, and I've never had the pleasure of having
references disappear from under me.
