I have a test for this exact thing in Sub::Quote. It uses the B module to check the flags. Rather than having individual functions for each flag, or generating a data structure, my test just generates a string of what flags are set, since that was simplest and gave the nicest debugging results.
From quotify.t:
my %flags;
{
no strict 'refs';
for my $flag (qw(
SVs_TEMP
SVs_OBJECT
SVs_GMG
SVs_SMG
SVs_RMG
SVf_IOK
SVf_NOK
SVf_POK
SVf_OOK
SVf_FAKE
SVf_READONLY
SVf_PROTECT
SVf_BREAK
SVp_IOK
SVp_NOK
SVp_POK
)) {
if (defined &{'B::'.$flag}) {
$flags{$flag} = &{'B::'.$flag};
}
}
}
sub flags {
my $flags = B::svref_2object(\($_[0]))->FLAGS;
join ' ', sort grep $flags & $flags{$_}, keys %flags;
}
then later:
is flags($copy), flags($value),
"$value_name: quotify doesn't modify input";

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).
