die LIST
[....]
If LIST is empty and $@ already contains a value (typically
from a previous eval) that value is reused after appending
"\t...propagated". This is useful for propagating exceptions:
eval { ... };
die unless $@ =~ /Expected exception/;
Looks correct to me, although as I hate having to remember/search for special
cases like this, I'd prefer
if ($@ and $@ !~ /alarm clock restart/) { die $@ }
although this is not technically the same thing.
