What's the right way to do this here newfangled "function template"? I'm subclassing HTML::Filter and overriding all the methods in an identical fashion. Here's the relevant code:

#!/usr/bin/perl

sub fillTemplate {
    my $funcName = shift;
    my $index = shift;
    
    sub {
      my $self = shift;
      sanityCheck($self);
      ($self->{inTheComment} == 1) ? 
push @{$self->{killBuffer}}, $_[$index] : $self->SUPER::$funcName(@_);
    }
}

for $function ( [ 'declaration', 0 ], 
                [ 'start', 3 ],
                [ 'text', 0 ],
                [ 'end', 1 ] ) {
    *($function->[0]) = fillTemplate($function->[0],$function->[1]);  
+  
}

Perl doesn't like me referring to $self->SUPER::$funcName. What's the proper way? Dispensing with the template and writing it all out, the line reads $self->SUPER::start, $self->SUPER::end, etc.
