Well, my thinking was that since I've used warnings::register in my modules and warnings::warnif to create custom warnings, and that function is sensitive to FATAL warnings, I thought it'd be sensitive to no warnings as well, since AFAIK warn just unconditionally warns (and AFAIK the only way to catch it is with %SIG). And it does indeed work, but unfortunately it seems that it only works across package boundaries, I'm not entirely sure yet why, but from a quick look at the source it seems to be because it uses (parts of) Carp under the hood, looking up the call stack.

use warnings;
use strict;

{
    package Foo;
    use warnings::register;
    sub bar {
        warnings::warnif("bar: $_[0]");
    }
}

{
    no warnings;
    Foo::bar("inside");
}
Foo::bar("outside");

use warnings::register;
use Carp;
{
    no warnings;
    warn "warn";
    warnings::warn("warnings::warn");
    carp "carp";
    warnings::warnif("inside 2");
}
warnings::warnif("outside 2");

__END__

bar: outside at w.pl line 17.
warn at w.pl line 23.
warnings::warn at w.pl line 24.
carp at w.pl line 25.

So at the moment my only two suggestions are to either go across package boundaries like I did in the above, or write your own debug function, which I tend to do. Just one example from here:

sub _debug {
    my ($self, $lvl, @out) = @_;
    return if $self->{debug}<$lvl || !@out;
    print STDERR __PACKAGE__, " DEBUG: ", @out, "\n";
}
# ...
$self->_debug(2, ...);
