Hmmm - let me take that back.  There are too many issues with parsing at
the moment.

So the construct :

$abc->new( PARAM => {
         key1  => 'value1',
         key2  => 'value2',
         key3  => { keyA  => 'valueA', keyB=>'valueB'}
       });

doesn't work unless it is all written on one line.

And when trying to replace Error.pm in quite a long module, meaningless
error messages makes it really difficult to start tracking down the
problems in perfectly legal perl code.

Also, it imposes a significant startup time on my old laptop.

I guess it is back to eval & die.

If anybody is interested in reading an old discussion (2001) which
highlights the issues, the link is :
