Perl Package.pm L2141-2210: FindFile_fallback
Pure-check variant of find_file_fallback: strips the same
suffix/prefix patterns and reports whether the fallback name has a
registered binding, but DOES NOT eagerly invoke the binding’s
load_definitions. Use this from pre-flight existence checks (e.g.
class_cls_via_fallback in tex_job.rs) where firing the binding’s
body has side effects (\LoadClass, \RequirePackage) that contaminate
the subsequent real load. Witness: astro-ph0002213 — the \psfig
cluster fix (mn1 → mn fallback was eagerly running mn.cls’s
\LoadClass{article} before the \documentstyle[epsfig]{mn1}
option-pass-through machinery had a chance to enqueue epsfig into
opt@article.cls).
