I seem to get the semicolon with your second case:
% perl5.6.1 -MO=Deparse -pe '$_=$.'
LINE: while (defined($_ = <ARGV>)) {
$_ = $.;
}
continue {
die "-p destination: $!\n" unless print $_;
}
% perl5.8.0 -MO=Deparse -pe '$_=$.'
LINE: while (defined($_ = <ARGV>)) {
$_ = $.;
}
continue {
die "-p destination: $!\n" unless print $_;
}
Update: Response to above update: with 5.00503 I get:
% perl5.00503 -MO=Deparse -pe '$_=$.'
LINE: while (defined($_ = <ARGV>)) {
$_ = $.
}
continue {
die "-p destination: $!\n" unless print $_;
}

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
