You must have missed my answer from the Chatterbox. Have you read the documentation?

Typing perldoc -f system and perldoc -f require at your command prompt shows you the documentation about the two functions. They can also be found on the web, as system and require.

Nowhere the documentation mentions that passing of parameters is possible, and require also mentions that it will load a file only once.
