[QUOTE="Julian Mehnle, post: 4816916"]
If I don't know how to reproduce the bug, then the number of situations I
have to test with the debugger grows roughly exponentially with code size.

A few minutes ago I luckily found the bug by accident (I was embedding
RFC3066-style language tags, e.g. "en", in class names that would then be
require'd, which would obviously fail if the lang tag had a hyphen in it,
e.g. "en-us").  But the question remains how that bug could have been
traced back from the warning message given by Perl.

Perhaps Perl should be giving the _real_ line number in the _real_ source
file in such cases, as the debugger does?

I guess I'm going to file wish to the Perl developers on this one.

Thanks for everyone's ideas!

Julian.
