Re: [Templates] Template Toolkit and DateTime::Duration

> Hi,

Hi,

I have gotten a little patch that fixes TT's handling of 
DateTime::Duration objects.

In Template::Stash::_do_top() there is a line

my $atroot = ($root eq $self);

which causes the problem. If we replace it with the following, the logic 
will short circuit and we will never have to compare apples to oranges.

my $atroot = ((ref ($root) eq ref ($self)) && ($root eq $self));

It should not break anything else. Right?
