I'm surprised I didn't get the "perhaps you forgot to load ..." message that usually comes with this sort of error.

Odd, I get the message...

>perl -e "bless({}, 'Cow')->moo();"
Can't locate object method "moo" via package "Cow" (perhaps you forgot
+ to load "Cow"?) at -e line 1.

>perl -e "STDOUT->print();"
Can't locate object method "print" via package "IO::Handle" (perhaps y
+ou forgot to load "IO::Handle"?) at -e line 1.

>perl -v

This is perl, v5.6.1 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread
(with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail)
