+=head1 NAME
+
+if - C<use> a Perl module if a condition holds
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+  use if CONDITION, MODULE => ARGUMENTS;
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The construct
+
+  use if CONDITION, MODULE => ARGUMENTS;
+
+has no effect unless C<CONDITION> is true.  In this case the effect is
+the same as of
+
+  use MODULE ARGUMENTS;
+
+=head1 BUGS
+
+The current implementation does not allow specification of the
+required version of the module.
