in thread Syntax checking without BEGIN blocks

With eval and symbol table magic modules import could could be modifing the syntax of the main program. In fact all module imports are actualy running the code in the import. I think realy you should be mad at the people who have there imports unlinking files etc not at perl ;) This is just part of the price you pay for a dynamic language.
