I've written a small "AIM bot" using Net::OSCAR and I'm trying to get some logging and signal handling working. None of my print LOG or the call to &signal_handler is working. I thought it might be because the code is caught in the OSCAR while (1) loop, but even the initial print LOG "$0: created $home/$input as a named pipe\n"; isn't doing anything. Any ideas?

Update: Added strict checking, warnings, and disabled buffered output. Also added a die to the aforementioned print statement. Still no logging.

Update #2: atcroft pointed out that I wasn't actually unbuffering LOG. Corrected code included.
