I'm trying to trap those so I can get a realistic geocoding, but my error routine is just skipping it.
I'm not familiar with this module, but 
eval{
    $latlong = $geocoder->geocode(location => $location);

Apparently geocode dies here and the rest of the eval block is skipped. From the source of the module (V3): 
$param{location} = shift;
...
my $location = $param{location}
        or Carp::croak("Usage: geocode(location => \$location)");

Maybe try to check manually whether your $location is empty?
