Subject: eval { use ... } does not do what you want
As per subject. I found the broek idiom with http://search.cpan.org/grep?release=Set-IntSpan-Partition-0.03;string=Test::Pod|Test::Pod::Coverage;n=1;C=0 The reason why this idiom makes no sense is the three way parse nature of perl that executes use statements as they come before paying attention to the eval {}. That way a missing library leads to a fail before the statement finishes its compilation. Sample fail reports: http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/90036575 http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/90036653 Gruesse!
