There are cases where, although the node title doesn't say anything useful, you still can't complain because the OP also couldn't have invented a better title. This is one of those cases.

Examine. The body of the post is good: it contains a code example reduced to minimal and explains what the OP expects it to do and how it fails. The minimal code example doesn't use any advanced features: it doesn't include modules (except for strict) or anything. Until you know the answer, there's no better way to describe the question than "I wrote something very simple in perl and it doesn't work".

Thanks to tye for explaining this phenomenon to me.
