in thread Learning to *really* love references

you can only create an alias with a package variable (using a glob) or in a for-loop.

Not quite true, Japhy. In a subroutine call, the elements of @_ are aliased to the actual arguments.

I find that that and the for-loop technique answer about 98% of my aliasing needs.
