How do I clone a Class::Struct?

I have a hash of Class::Struct, how do I clone it (deep copy)? Class::Struct does not provide a clone or copy method and manually copying the internals of Class::Struct would be hard.

my %a = ();

$a{k} = MyStruct->new;

my %b = ... ?

The Storable module provides a dclone function that is able to deep-copy the hash and the Class::Struct contents.

use Storable qw/dclone/;

my %a = ();
$a{k} = MyStruct->new;

my %b =  %{dclone(\%a)};
