How can I use a "constant" as a hash key?
$ perl -e 'use constant CAT=>A;
$hash{CAT} = q{Bobby};
$hash{"CAT"} = q{Muffy};
$hash{'CAT'} = q{Fluffy};
$hash{qq{CAT}} = q{Tuffy};
print "$_ = $hash{$_}\n" foreach (keys %hash);'
CAT = Tuffy

A=Bobby
See the "Not-so-symbolic references" section of the perlref.pod man page
