I've used the same trick in an overridden exit in FastCGI daemon that executes CGI scripts. 

chdir(dirname($script_qfn));
local $0 = $script_qfn;
FindBin::again();
local @ENV{ keys(%$env) } = values(%$env);

my ($rv, $e);
FCGI_DAEMON_EXEC_BLOCK: {
   package scripts::fcgi_daemon::root;
   
   # Hide a spurious warning.
   { no warnings 'void'; *CORE::GLOBAL::exit; }
   
   local *CORE::GLOBAL::exit = sub {
      no warnings 'exiting';
      last FCGI_DAEMON_EXEC_BLOCK;
   };
   $rv = do($0);
   $e = $@;
}

...

delete $scripts::fcgi_daemon::{'root::'};
CGI::_reset_globals() if $INC{"CGI.pm"};
