    FUNCTIONS
        enable_ptl()
            Installs the import hooks needed to import PTL modules.  This must
            be done explicitly because not all Quixote applications need to use
            PTL, and import hooks are deep magic that can cause all sorts of
            mischief and deeply confuse innocent bystanders.  Thus, we avoid
            invoking them behind the programmer's back.  One known problem is
            that, if you use ZODB, you must import ZODB before calling this
            function.
