Welcome to the wonderful world of source filters :(
Try this:
$ perl -MData::Dumper::Simple -wle 'print Dumper(42)'
print (...) interpreted as function at -e line 1.
$42 = 42;
Fun!
Check out my Data::Dumper::Names. ::Simple was always listed a simple debugging tool.
::Names is a touch more robust as it's not a source filter and uses PadWalker to figure out the
variable names.
