Actually, it wasn't all *that* long ago when the -> wasn't optional in that construct (I believe 5.006 is when that happened and perldelta agrees with me).

It is getting close to long enough ago that I'd forget this fact -- except that I tend to answer a lot of questions from people about Perl and many of those people have surprisingly old versions of Perl. (:
