While package variables are usually constants, they are not always so. To use all-caps for something that isn't a constant will confuse your code's readers. I have yet to find a method of identifying non-constant globals with which I'm happy.

Capitalizing globals that may be changed, like $Stuff, is something I find nice.

See perltoc if you don't know which perldoc to read!
