Hmmm. I can't repeat it with: 
 perl -we 'print -A, " age of $_: ", -A > 30 ?"old\n":"new\n" for (</t
+mp/*.*>);'

You're sure it doesn't have something to do with the value of $file? Otherwise, I'd think of some activestate bug...

Update: c-era maybe right as well. But on linux, you must be pretty fast for the -A to be really zero..
