I don't know if this will help at all, but I just found out, myself,
about the -s option.
If you run your script with:
#!/usr/bin/perl -s

and remember, to keep strict happy, to:
use vars qw($all_the $variables $you_need $from_stdin);

You can run your script like this:
bash-2.03$ script.pl -variables=blah1 -you_need=blah2 -from_stdin=blah3

I am still very much the newbie, but to my untrained mind,
this completely blows away getopts.

P.S. Sorry to the people to whom I keep replying personally.
This is the only list I am on currently that autoreplies
to the sender and not the list, and, being a girl of
very little brain I keep forgetting...

Namaste,
