Here is yet another solution. This one has a single loop and no recursion.
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dumper;
my $h= {
(4,-1),
(2,6),
(6,4),
(3,5),
(5,-1),
(99,-1),
};
my %hh;
my %tails;
while(my ($key, $value) = each %$h) {
my $val;
if($value == -1) {
$val = -1;
} elsif(exists($hh{$value})) {
$val = { $value => $hh{$value} };
delete($hh{$value});
} else {
$val = {};
$tails{$value} = $val;
}
if(exists($tails{$key})) {
$tails{$key}{$key} = $val;
} else {
$hh{$key} = $val;
}
}
print Dumper(\%hh);

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).
