To all -- First, thank you for the assistance.  It is greatly appreciated.

Second, the problem really did turn out to be Params::Validate's
exported symbols interfering with POE's (or POE::Session's) exported
symbols.  My solution was to be selective about what is exported from
Params::Validate (I had been using :types, now I export specific
symbols as needed), and *not* to export OBJECT, instead using
Params::Validate::OBJECT.

Thanks again,
Rob
