Fair enough. T'was nought but a thought :)

Funnily enough, I don't get the warning on 5.10.

#! perl -slw
use strict;

sub do_foo { $_ != 3 or die "foo == 3" }
sub do_bar { $_ != 4 or die "bar == 4" }

for (1..5) {
    eval {
        next unless do_foo();
        next unless do_bar();
        #...
        1;
    } or do {
        warn $@;
        next;
    };
    print;
}

__END__
