You're right. I guess I'm a little more tired than I thought :-)

Anyway, I guess you're sort of stuck then. The only thing I can think of, is to use something a little more descriptive than $__name__ - how about $__lex_sub__name ?

I think it would be quite reasonable to disallow the use of scalars called $__lex_sub__* in combination with your module.
