Just to be clear: lexical variables don't suffer
from this problem, even lexical variables at file scope.
That implies that lexicals are destroyed before global
destruction begins (which I believe to be true but I
haven't verified that beyond testing that lexicals don't
suffer from this problem).
To be extra clear: destroying a lexical variable won't
necessarilly destroy the object that it references. If
you have other references to that same object
and any of those reference manage to survive until global
destruction, then your object will survive until then as
well (and can so could then suffer from misordered
destructions).

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).
