 It exports the following variables:

 %Kinds
     This holds a hash-of-lists. Each list contains the functions in the
     category the key denotes.

 %Type
     In this hash each key represents a function and the value is the
     category.  The category can be a comma separated list.

 %Flavor
     In this hash each key represents a function and the value is a short
     description of that function.

 %Type_Description
     In this hash each key represents a category of functions and the
     value is a short description of that category.

 @Type_Order
     This list of categories is used to produce the same order as the
     "Perl Functions by Category" in perlfunc section.
