0.89

=head1 DESCRIPTION

An object type used to implement the L<Forks::Super::bg_qx|Forks::Super/bg_qx>
and L<Forks::Super::bg_eval|Forks::Super/bg_eval> lazy asynchronous
evaluation functions for scalar context.
See L<Forks::Super|Forks::Super> and
L<Forks::Super::LazyEval|Forks::Super::LazyEval> for details.
