Update: My apologies! Forget what I have said, it was my observation was off, not yours. But it might be a better idea to demo your issue by using Data::Dumper.
use Data::Dumper;
use strict;
use warnings;
my %foo = ( BAZ => 1 );
sub see_args { };
print Dumper(\%foo);
see_args( @foo{qw(BAR BAZ)} );
print Dumper(\%foo);
It prints:
$VAR1 = {
'BAZ' => 1
};
$VAR1 = {
'BAZ' => 1,
'BAR' => undef
};
Yes, autovivification is in working.
Your observation was off. In your original post, you were confused by the fact that the $ENV{TMPDIR} "appears" to have a value as you saw it through that sprintf. No, you didn't see the value of $ENV{TMPDIR}. Your sprintf printed a constant "<absent>", not the value of $ENV{TMPDIR}.</strick>

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).
