Try this (again untested) code.

I've yet to convince myself that there isn't a race condition here, but if there is, you'll probably find it by running it for real quicker than I will be running it mentally:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w BEGIN { our($_pathname,$_filename) = ( $0 =~ m[(.*)/([^/]+)$] ) ?

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
