Down side, any error/warning messages disappear into aether surrounding your computer.
I once hacked a module that calls Win32::MsgBox() whenever a fatal error occurs, so you see errors even when running wperl:
package ExePM::Carp;
use strict;
use warnings;
use base 'Exporter';
use Carp qw();
use Win32;
our @EXPORT=qw(confess croak carp);
our @EXPORT_OK=qw(cluck die);
our $VERSION='1.00';
BEGIN {
*CORE::GLOBAL::die=$main::SIG{__DIE__}=\&ExePM::Carp::die;
}
sub confess { ExePM::Carp::die Carp::longmess @_; }
sub croak { ExePM::Carp::die Carp::shortmess @_; }
sub carp { warn Carp::shortmess @_; }
sub cluck { warn Carp::longmess @_; }
sub die
{
my ($arg,@rest)=@_;
CORE::die($arg,@rest) if ref($arg) || $^S || Carp::longmess()=~/ev
+al [\{\']/m;
$arg=join('',$arg,@rest);
unless ($arg=~/\n$/) {
my ($pkg,$file,$line)=caller(0);
$arg.=" at $file line $line.\n";
}
Win32::MsgBox($arg,MB_ICONSTOP,$0);
CORE::die($arg);
};
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).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
