Yes. That *does* work.
Thank you! I think you just solved it.
Here is another idea that might be helpful if....
if ((ref( perl_version ) == SCALAR ) && (perl_version >= 5.010000))
body yatta yatta
endif
The SA if() conditional only supports a very limited subset of the perl
syntax, otherwise the perl_version change wouldn't have been needed in the
first place, we could just check $] or $^V directly.
So, that doesn't work:
Nov 30 17:14:09.267 [18334] warn: config: error in if - ( ( "ref" (
"fnord_var" ) == "SCALAR" ) && ( "fnord_var" >= 5.010000 ) ) : syntax
