in reply to use has it's own scope?

use docs say "It is exactly equivalent to BEGIN { require Module; Module->import( LIST ); }" so probably yes LIST has its own scope.

      FYI I wondered if B::Deparse could show this. The answer is yes, with level 5 of deparsing or higher, use statments will be translated into their equivalent BEGIN blocks: 

      perl -MO=Deparse,-x5 -e "use Set my $x = 12;"
sub BEGIN {
    require Set;
    do {
        'Set'->import(my $x = 12)
    };
}
-e syntax OK

      I don't think the fact that the lexical has a scope even shorter than the BEGIN block changes anything though.
