You might want to be careful using Error. There can be some unexpected negative side-effects. Perrin's write up Re: Re2: Learning how to use the Error module by example has the details. (I've written Exception::Class::TryCatch to bring some try/catch sugar to the Exception::Class module, and you might consider that in place of Error.)

Yeah, actually I had segfaults with Error prior to 0.15, but I'll consider switching to any other module, as Error is kindly to generate weird behaviour when you do something wrong... I just didn't know any good one... daniel	[reply]
