Not according to the perl I use. The code below dies with Can't localize lexical variable $bar at pack.pl line 10.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
$main::foo = 'global';
my $bar = "my";
print "foo is ",$foo,"\n";
print "my is ",$bar,"\n";
{
local $foo;
local $bar; # Dies here.
print "foo is ",$foo,"\n";
print "foo is ",$main::foo,"\n";
print "bar is ",$bar,"\n";
}
print "foo is ",$foo,"\n";
print "my is ",$bar,"\n";

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.
