Fraid not.. tried moving the use out of the BEGIN before and it
made no difference:
package LTest;

But you are still calling "use", and as I said earlier, that means there
are still 2 BEGIN blocks, so both are being called. Test2 only has the one
BEGIN call because it doesn't try to use.
For example, your code is roughly the same as...
package LTest;
BEGIN {require Test2};
BEGIN {
warn "Test is beginning\n";
}
So you can see there are two BEGIN blocks that are being called.
Or am I talking out of my arse? :-)

Oh, actually do you mean it is the same at:
pageage LTest;
BEGIN {require Test2}
BEGIN { warn "." }
print "Here\n"
1;
Ok, that kind'a make sence..

You forgot here: warn "In A.D. 2101\n";

And this should be 'print "What happen?\n";'.

Re: Am I going nutts ? - read before answering!
Yup, that's right. So to get it to only have the one call, change your
"use" to a require and put it in the BEGIN block.

use fred;
Will also call fred-import(), so you might want to emulate that too.
