let s = try String(PerlScalar(200))                          // s == "200"
let s = try String(PerlScalar("OK"))                         // s == "OK"
let s = try String(PerlScalar(referenceTo: PerlScalar(10)))  // throws

let s = String(PerlScalar(200))                          // s == "200"
let s = String(PerlScalar("OK"))                         // s == "OK"
let s = String(PerlScalar(referenceTo: PerlScalar(10)))  // s == "SCALAR(0x12345678)"
