    I'm tempted to reply that neither will I waste my time answering if I do know the answer, and thank you very much, but will confine myself to the following.

    I don't think the expression  /\Q@array/ is compiling the regex you expect. Consider 

    c:\@Work\Perl>perl -wMstrict -le

 my $rx = qr/\Q@array/;
 print $rx;
"
(?^:acuser\ sync_cmd\ 2015\-01\-13)
