Mmh...?

#!/usr/bin/env perl                                                   
+                        

eval { qx(nose --cuke) || die qq(shit: $!\n) };

print qq(Trapped this $@) if $@;

__END__

Update: I always thought that it isn't a bad idea to wrap a call to a subshell into a eval block. And i don't know what is generic with qx. It's just the same as backticks, isn't it? Just a subshell.
