Each time you have an eval step inside the debugger, it replies with s.t. like: 
main::((eval 8)[evals.pl:15]:1):

The string (eval 8) is the "file" name of the eval. You can use that name to list the eval.

The following example with the debugger illustrates the point. I will use this listing: 

pp2@nereida:~/src/perl/testing$ cat -n evals.pl
     1  use strict;
     2  use warnings;
     3
     4  my ($a, $b) = (1, 9);
     5
     6  my $x = eval q {
     7    $a = 2;
     8    $b = 3;
     9    print "$b\n";
    10    $a+$b;
    11  };
    12
    13
    14
    15  my $y = eval '$a+$b';
    16
    17  print "$y\n";

See how the evals produce the "virtual filenames": 
pp2@nereida:~/src/perl/testing$ perl -wd evals.pl

See it?. Now I try to stop at line 15 
  DB<3> c 15
Line 15 not breakable.

I fail because I am in file eval not in the main file: 
  DB<4> f evals.pl
1:      use strict;
2:      use warnings;

10        $a+$b;
