The @ISA and @EXPORT_OK arrays need to be package variables, not lexicals. Change the my()'s to our()'s, or 'use vars ...', or simply place 'strict' after initialization of the special arrays and don't declare them at all. 

this:

    package Blah;
    use strict;
    require Exporter;
    our @ISA = qw/Exporter/;
    our @EXPORT_OK = qw/authenticate/;
    # ...

or,

    package Blah;
    require Exporter;
    @ISA = qw/Exporter/;
    @EXPORT_OK = qw/authenticate/;
    use strict;
    # ...

or, 

    package Blah;
    use strict;
    use vars qw/@ISA @EXPORT_OK/;
    require Exporter;
    @ISA = qw/Exporter/;
    @EXPORT_OK = qw/authenticate/;
    # ...
