    You can't just omit the braces, but you can do this instead:

    *{"11abc"}->(); or &{"11abc"}();

    The first one works because you can dereference the glob like any of a scalar, array, hash, code, io, or glob reference. That is, when you do this, you don't explicitly need to take the right part of the glob with the *foo{THING} notation.

    The second should be obvious.
