in reply to When was $@ scope in sigdie fixed?

Version 5.14 is the exact value you're looking for, per the changelog notes at Exception Handling. This version can be enforced in code where this is a mandatory requirement with the stanza: 

require v5.014_000;

.. which will cause code to die when that stanza is hit (or substitute use for require to make that a compile-time check, although IIRC that also enables some optional features as of that version by default as well.)

      You're right that the first of your suggested forms is the recommended method for maximum comparability.

      Incidentally, any of those 3 forms work counting mine, at least in reasonably-recent Perl versions (though I'm not exactly sure how old would break with that.) I had intended for the form that dropped the leading v as the documentation says it's more backwards-compatible, but there it is.
