Interesting... You made a little typo, that should be a semicolon on the end of the open() line. But look at this, it seems to solve pg's problem. And interestingly, IO::File has the same behaviour that pg is complaining about. Is this behaviour of $. a bug or a feature?
#!/usr/bin/perl
my $file = "pg-write3";
{
open my $fh, $file or die "open: $!";
$line = <$fh>;
$line = <$fh>;
print "two reads:\t$.\n";
}
# $fh is closed here
print "closed file:\t$.\n";
{
open my $fh, $file or die "open: $!";
print "open again:\t$.\n";
$line = <$fh>;
print "one read:\t$.\n";
}
# $fh is closed here
print "closed again:\t$.\n";
__END__
Output:
two reads: 2
closed file: 2
open again: 0
one read: 1
closed again: 1

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).
