Have you thought about using eval for error checking on the require? So your code would become something like: 

my $PREFIX = '/home/xpost-scripts';

my %xscripts = ( site_a => 'a_funct', site_b => 'b_funct' );
foreach (keys(%xscripts)) {
  eval { require ("$PREFIX/$_") };
  print STDERR "Warning: File $_ had errors: '$@'\n" if($@);
}

# ... Here, we grabbed the Function name from a DB query. It's a hash 
+for this example.
foreach (keys(%xscripts)) {
  if (defined($xscripts{$_}) && ref($xscripts{$_}) && UNIVERSIAL::isa(
+$xscripts{$_}, 'CODE')) {
     &$xscripts{$_}("A parameter");
  } else {
    print STDERR "Error. Could not call function $xscripts{$_}\n";
  }
}

Don't know if this would work 100% for your needs but it's a thought.

Seasons don't fear The Reaper.
Nor do the wind, the sun, and the rain.
We can be like they are.
