Out of curiosity, what does Contextual::Return provide to you that "normal" Perl code does not? Do you reallly make so much use of overloaded stringification that using overload is too much hassle?
wantarray and caller have worked for almost everything I've ever needed, and I need them rarely, at that. In the current case, I was partly exploring C::R's capabilities, to enforce stricter usage of some subs--beyond the typical croak on void context.
Truthfully, even if it would have worked flawlessly, I likely would have ended up removing the module dependency once the bulk of development was done and I had unit tests that took over.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
