From spider@Orb.Nashua.NH.US

Depending on memory allocation patterns, the use of UNIVERSAL​::VERSION
can cause a segfault if the target package has a stub declaration for
its &VERSION. This is because it's not checking that the value it
gets back from its hv_fetch is really a GV, and in the case of stub
declarations it's an IV or a PV.

This fixes that, and causes it to understand an undef GvSV as well as
an undef gv as being "(undef)".
