 - Replaced the use of B with XString if it is installed. The latter is much
   smaller and provides the one subroutine from B we cared about. Based on GH
   #15. Implemented by Nicolas R.

 # SYNOPSIS

     Moose has some bizarre (and mostly) undocumented features relating to
     coercions and parameterizable types. This is a misfeature.
 
+# OPTIONAL PREREQS
+
+There are several optional prereqs that if installed will make this
+distribution better in some way.
+
+- [Ref::Util](https://metacpan.org/pod/Ref::Util)
+
+    Installing this will speed up a number of type checks for built-in types.
+
+- [XString](https://metacpan.org/pod/XString)
+
+    If this is installed it will be loaded instead of the [B](https://metacpan.org/pod/B) module if you have
+    Perl 5.10 or greater. This module is much more memory efficient than loading
+    all of [B](https://metacpan.org/pod/B).
+
+- [Sub::Util](https://metacpan.org/pod/Sub::Util) or [Sub::Name](https://metacpan.org/pod/Sub::Name)
+
+    If one of these is installed then stack traces that end up in Specio code will
+    have much better subroutine names for any frames.

 # WHY THE NAME?
 
 This distro was originally called "Type", but that's an awfully generic top
