Why or why not? - local undef $/by TGI (Parson) |

TGI has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question: Japhy wrote this node, in repsonse to a recent post. In it he says most emphatically to not use local undef $/; So I trotted over to the Super Search and did some looking. I found lots of stuff that uses it, I've posted code that uses it, I've encouraged people to use it. I found no dire warnings. Is there a some problem with local undef $/;? When do you slurp? Why or why not? What method do you use?
