How long is registry.dd? 172 lines? Does it start like this:

{
  'action' => {
    'display' => [
      'display'
    ],
    'edit' => [
      'edit'
    ],
    'edit_contention' => [
      'edit'
    ]
  },
  'add_order' => {

The lines in Spoon/Hub.pm just before it dies with the error
message you quote are:

    $self->preload;
    my $action = $self->action;

preload is loading data from the registry. My guess is that it is
dying because it doesn't find the lines above in registry.dd.

Anyway, Kwiki-0.37 and Spoon-0.21 don't seem to have this
problem.
