I think that will also mess up anything which is doing an eval and then checking $@ afterwards.

Does it?

use Carp qw(confess cluck);
BEGIN {
    *CORE::GLOBAL::warn = \&cluck;
    *CORE::GLOBAL::die = \&confess;
}

sub foo { bar() }
sub bar { print "in bar\n"; die "badness!" }

eval { foo };
print "ack - $@" if $@;

__output__

in bar
ack - badness! at - line 8
        main::bar() called at - line 7
        main::foo() called at - line 10
        eval {...} called at - line 10

Same goes for throwing objects

use Carp qw(confess cluck);
BEGIN {
    *CORE::GLOBAL::warn = \&cluck;
    *CORE::GLOBAL::die = \&confess;
}

sub foo { bar() }
sub bar { print "in bar\n";die( bless{akey=>"a string"} ) }

use DDS;
eval { foo };
print "ack: ", Dump($@) if ref $@; 

__output__

in bar
ack: $main1 = bless( { akey => 'a string' }, 'main' );

So Aristotle's solution should fit the bill.
