in reply to Don't local(@_)

Ouch! That looks like a bug to me... (unless I'm misunderstanding some deep voodoo) BTW 5.00503 and 5.6.1 behave differently on linux (though neither behave as I would expect...):
% perl5.00503 tamper.pl My arguments were: % perl5.6.1 tamper.pl My arguments were: All your arguments are belong to us. % perl5.6.0 tamper.pl My arguments were: All your arguments are belong to us.
Update: Added 5.6.0 test from a different linux machine...
Update2: You might try playing around with local *_ which doesn't do the right thing, but at least it does something different....
