Apart from the solution pointed to by tlm, note that you have an error in your code: use strict;
use warnings;
my %big_hoh;
while ( my $data = get_one_record(...) ) {
my @key_list = get_arbitrary_length_key_list($data, ...);
my $last_key = pop @key_list;
my $storage_point = \%big_hoh;
foreach my $key (@key_list) {
if ( ! exists $storage_point->{$key} ) {
$storage_point->{$key} = {};
$storage_point = $storage_point->{$key};
}
} # Added to kick next line
$storage_point->{$last_key} = $data; # out of the cycle
}

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).

are good places to start.
