What I wonder, and maybe this isn't possible for some reason, but why do you need an eval? Can't you replace

$arg .= "\"" . $str . "\", ";
[download]

with

push @args, $str
[download]

and then instead of

my %jobstats = eval $call
[download]

just use

my %jobstats = $jobs->$func( @args )
[download]

I like to reduce the number of times I have to use eval, and I think most monks would agree with me. Try to get rid of it if possible.
