> just made it smarter ... without needing the "use re 'eval'":

hm, we seem to be talking about different things

please compare these threads

They show that concatenating literal strings to form an eval group used to work out of the box without use re 'eval' .

Both examples don't include any variables but rely on concats aka .

In detail: Some optimizer converted this

into this at compile time without complaining. Now it requires use re "eval"
