Then what was the following code you posted supposed to do anyway?

my $result = lives_ok {$o->answer} 'answer worked';
is $result, 42, 'answer returned 42';

Because the second snippet I posted behaves exactly like that.

I guess it was intended to prove what an idiot I am when I don't run my code examples. Excuse me while I go bang my head against the wall (and then fix the example :-).

<bang, bang, bang ... >

Ah, that's better. Example should read:

my $result;
lives_ok {$result = $o->answer} 'answer worked';
is $result, 42, 'answer returned 42';
