> sub BEGIN

I think that should just be 'BEGIN {}' as you are wanting to change the
code within the BEGIN block. If BEGIN where really a sub you could
should be able to call it later on in your program but you can't:

---
sub BEGIN {
 print 'hello';
}

BEGIN {
 print 'world';
}

BEGIN();   # no output ???
&BEGIN();  # Undefined subroutine &main::BEGIN called
