JupiterHost> If I was trying to see the source I'd:

JupiterHost>   open ZERO, $0 or die "Could not peek $!";
JupiterHost>   print while(<ZERO>);
JupiterHost>   close ZERO

And more than that:

my %sources;
local *ARGV; local $/;
@ARGV = ($0, values %INC);
while (<>) {
  $sources{$ARGV} = $_;
}

There.  The entire source code for the application is now in %sources.
Every .pm, every require, and the top-level application.

Enjoy.
