I have a situation where I'm overriding some methods in a class and it's breaking the effects of Carp. The parent class will croak, but the error message then lists the line number of child class that called SUPER rather than the real client code.
$foo->SUPER::bar(@_); # <-- errors give this line number
There must be a way around this using some of the stuff that stacktraces are done with in Carp, right? Anyone have something handy?

UPDATE: All good suggestions. As it turns out, my first idea (using goto) actually worked, but I couldn't tell. The real problem was a different class turning off $dbh->{RaiseError} so that these were really warnings rather than exceptions, and thus not being caught by things that should have caught them. Sigh.
