•Re^3: When C<use Module;> *not* the same as C<require Module; import Module;>?

Notice the "print on unopened filehandle". Try it again with parens() after the name, or a BEGIN {} block. Your problem is that the symbol is being misinterpreted at compile time. I bet the import is still happening at runtime.
