in thread Discover a package global's symbol name given a reference

What version of Perl are you using? Current Perl (and at least going back a few versions), the \ operator is distributed over lists, so that \( $item1, $item2 ) is the same as ( \$item1, \$item2 ). I wrote this using Perl 5.8.4.

What error message did you get?
