Does it work once you call the parameter? That is, if you do:

  SPOPS::Initialize->process( ... );
  my $foo = Foo->new();
  print "Can it before? ", $foo->can( 'bar' ) ? 'yes' : 'no', "\n";
  $foo->bar( 'baz' );
  print "Can it after? ", $foo->can( 'bar' ) ? 'yes' : 'no', "\n";

It should print out:
  Can it before? no
  Can it after? yes

I agree that they should both say 'yes' and I'll see about making that 
happen.

Later,
