One obvious place one could go with it is having other variables of
mmm_type, and have all of the subroutines in mmm_mod take a variable of
mmm_type as their first argument, rather than getting them directly from
the module's variables. And now you've got something that's starting to
look like objects, though there's no polymorphism.
