Yes, actually.

No, you have a good point. It's exceedingly annoying to
have a program die halfway through due to a seldom traversed
codepath that includes a call to the lenght() function. Some
pragma could be arranged to help this.
no autoload;
or
use warnings 'undefuncalls';
or some such.
That doesn't solve the issue for method calls, and it is compile-time only
warnings. I'm not sure whether this should be foisted off into
B::Lint as it is now. Did you know about that? This:
perl -MO=Lint,-context,-undefined-subs myperlprogram
might make you happy. Then again, that's hardly a user-friendly
front end. What ever happened to the idea of a plint program
that did the icky work for you, akin to perlcc?
