Well, I don't know what you're doing wrong.



% perl
sub foo1($) { print "foo1: @_\n" }
sub foo2(&) { print "foo2: @_\n" }

foo1 { 'bar', 'quux' };
foo2 { 'bar', 'quux' };
^D
foo1: HASH(0xbc050)
foo2: CODE(0xc3bec)


I get the exact same results on both 5.004_04 and 5.005_60,
with and without -w and strict.
