Re: What is this doing, and why is this a good method of doing it?

I'll bite, rather than switching strict refs off then on again is it a good method? Is there a side effect of switching I dont see?

for (@x) {
    no strict 'refs';
    *$_ = sub {
        use strict 'refs';
        # ...
    };
}

Also why is the semicolon required before the no strict 'refs'?
