in thread perl -s is evil?
I can replicate that. But more to the point, I also get the following result which is closer to the original post:
(using both Perl 5.6.0 on Win95 and Perl 5.005_02 on Solaris)
It's just plain wrong. Not only can $1 be assigned to, but afterward it refuses to take the pattern from the regex.% perl -sle '"Hello" =~ /(\w+)/; print $1' -- -1=foo foo
