Even today, in Perl5, I'd write that as

$object->$meth($arg1,$arg2);
[download]

but it's clear that one or the other should be there, and not something ugly like

apply($object,$method,$arg1,$arg2);
[download]

or, assuming that can returned a bound method,

my $meth_ref = $object->can($method);
apply($meth_ref,$arg1,$arg2);
[download]
