I found the difference. You really used a "bug" in the 1.3 parser. You wrote [$ hidden $] and I wrote [$hidden$]. The difference is the space after the hidden. The 1.3 parser interprets this space as an first empty argument. You can get the same result with [$ hidden , $] (with or without spaces) in Embperl 2. I think the way Embperl 2 behaves is more predictable and clean. I don't think it makes sense to move this bug over to Embperl 2. You can simple do a s/hidden/hidden ,/ in your code and things should work with both versions.
