This is what it comes down to: bash-3.2$ perl5.14.2 -Mstrict -e 'open $[' bash-3.2$ perl5.15.9 -Mstrict -e 'open $[' Can't use string ("0") as a symbol ref while "strict refs" in use at -e line 1. It seems to me like a bug that that ever worked.

I agree this does not appear to be a perl bug. I've fixed the failing test t/01_mug.t ("Buffy looking in the mirror" section) simply by removing the -Mstrict at line 123. This fix was made in Acme::EyeDrops 1.60, which has just been uploaded to the CPAN.
