in reply to Which are perl-internal subroutines?

Out of curiousity, what are you attempting to accomplish? I'm asking this because this kind of solution smells like a solution to an XY problem. If you explain what you're attempting to do, we might be able to suggest a simpler solution to the actual problem.
My criteria for good software:
  1. Does it work?
  2. Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?

    There are three reasons for my question:
    first:
    curiosity
    second:
    I've seen people to become desperate with the definition of a import() method. If yuo dan't know about it, you wander, why your method is called "statical". I want to avoid things like that.
    third:
    I write an attribute-extension for subroutines and I want to check, if you define an attribute to an perl-internal method, that this can cause problems. It's the automatic way for the second reason.
