All interesting suggestions so far - but we found too many issues with setting up DIE signal handlers for us to trust it in production

I have production code doing the type of logging you want to do (along with email notification of failure results, full stack traces and win32::eventlog support.) So im curious as to which "issues" you encountered. I attach $SIG{__WARN__} and $SIG{__DIE__} handlers, and ive had no problems.
