in thread How do I make the garbage collector throw an exception when it fails to auto-close a filehandle?

Oh, I misunderstood that you didn't know for sure about Fatal's behaviour:
In the simplest case, use Fatal qw( :void close ); would work for this, but I strongly doubt it, and in any case I can’t think of a good way to purposefully trigger a close failure in order to test it.
And yes... the loop device rocks :)

perl -ple'$_=reverse' <<<ti.xittelop@oivalf

Don't fool yourself.
