in reply to An anomaly with List::Util::reduce and/or eval?

I get the same results as you for the second (although with warnings), but more drastic ones for the first! 
Name "main::a" used only once: possible typo at /tmp/t76 line 5.
Name "main::b" used only once: possible typo at /tmp/t76 line 5.
semi-panic: attempt to dup freed string at /tmp/t76 line 5.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

This is with Perl 5.6.1, and List::Utils 1.11.

    Thanks for the confirmation. As I belatedly posted, I'm on 5.8 and 1.07... I'll try pullling a later version of List::Util (if I can get it to build).

    If I understand your problem, I can solve it! Of course, the same can be said for you.
