Can anyone explain why that doesn't seem to destroy $B::A?

Ah, but it seems to! Try replacing the bottom of the program with:

A->A;
# Why doesn't it just call A::A here because of inheritance?
B->A; # Not a CODE reference at noinherit.pl line 27. 
eval "print \$B::A"; # Use of uninitialized value in print at (eval 2)
+ line 1.

    Hrm. I guess normal references to variables are bound at compile-time. Ah, well. Back to chromatic's method. *shrug*
