Seeing as you're using double quotes, won't the $0 be interpolated? I doubt this is what you intended, so you might want to consider escaping the $ or using single quotes and concatinating the newline onto the string.

Ohh and in reply to "Well, this should really go under "Idiotic Uses for Perl that are entirely Overkill", but alas, there is no such section..." there is in fact such a section. ;)
