"use base" sucks. It uses horrible heuristics to do its thing and gets things wrong disturbingly often. IMO its much preferable to avoid it. As an example play around with it with multiple packages in a single file, likewise play around with evaling packages into existance at run time, and watch use base act like its been smoking crack. -- perl -Mre=debug -e "/just|another|perl|hacker/"
