Hi,

How can i get function name and/or it's path inside :CODE attribute's body? In Perl 5.12 im using approach like in the example below. My problem is that when ported to Perl 5.10 i get wrong function name. 
package MyAttributes;
use Attribute::Handlers;

sub UNIVERSAL::FOO : ATTR(CODE) {
    my ($package, $symbol, $referent, $attr, $data) = @_;
    
    # in 5.12 i get "*Baz::bar" 
    # in 5.10 i get "*MyAttributes::ANON"
    my $f = *$symbol;
    $f =~ tr/*//d;
    
    print "Function $f is has FOO attribute";
}

package Baz;
sub bar :FOO { ... }
1;

What's the proper way to do it (i'd like it to be portable between 5.10 and 5.12)?
