If you want to interpolate a scalar value in a string you should probably
avoid creating an array reference, if only to avoid confusion:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] trwww]$ perl
use constant A_CONSTANT => '/some/path';
print("the constant's value is: ${ \A_CONSTANT }\n");
Ctrl-D
the constant's value is: /some/path
