What version of perl are you using? On 5.6.0 and 5.8.0 the first two are false
for me (as I'd expect).

Although thinking about it, qw doesn't have a comma anywhere, so why would it
use the comma operator to return the last element? That wouldn't make much
sense. Would it?

I have no idea. I don't know why I'm bothering to add my 2 pennies worth.
