*GLOBAL::CORE::rename = \&myrename;

Update: The above is wrong! It should be 

*CORE::GLOBAL::rename = \&myrename;

    Great! Is it possible to say 
    sub *GLOBAL::CORE::rename {...}

    directly? Or is it a two step process?

      Actually, I got the CORE and GLOBAL the wrong way around. It should be

      *GLOBAL::CORE::rename = \&myrename;

      [download]

      Or to do it in one step something like

      sub CORE::GLOBAL::rename{ 
    system "ren $_[ 0 ], $_[ 1 ]"; 
    return $? >> 8; 
}
