Take a look at the embedded package in the OP code.

I'm saying that coded this way:

#! perl -sl use strict; use warnings; X::test(); { package X; $FRED = 'fred'; sub test { print 'This is package:', __PACKAGE__; } 1; }

The strict & warnings affect that embedded package:

C:\test>perl -c test.pl Global symbol "$FRED" requires explicit package name at test.pl line 1 +0. test.pl had compilation errors.

But coded this way:

#! perl -sl { package X; $FRED = 'fred'; sub test { print 'This is package:', __PACKAGE__; } 1; } use strict; use warnings; X::test();

They do not:

C:\test>perl -c test.pl test.pl syntax OK

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
