Good point Eily about no guarantees add_child() has finished what's supposed to be doing without interruption if I enclose the offending statement in eval {}. The warning causes a die after all. For the record, it does seem to add the child beyond 99 and fails in doing the necessary housekeeping.

Also, even if it succeeds in the small script I provided, in my real use-case I must eval each and every Tree method just in case it runs over the recursion limit.

So, I am not doing the eval. I am looking for a replacement module (any suggestions) and filing a request to author.
