Would someone with 5.6 please check what O::Deparse thinks of this?  Here
are the 5.005_02 results:

jeffp@friday [3:11am] ~ #2perl -MO=Deparse
  sub foo { 4,2 }
  @a = sort foo(30,20,10);
  @a = sort(foo(30,20,10));
  @a = sort +foo(30,20,10);
  @a = sort &foo(30,20,10);

-e syntax OK
sub foo {
    4, 2;
}
@a = sort(foo 30, 20, 10);
@a = sort(foo 30, 20, 10);
@a = sort(foo(30, 20, 10));
@a = sort(&foo(30, 20, 10));

__END__

Obviously, 5.005_02's Deparse.pm was slightly wrong with the
+foo() syntax, which we know is more equivelent to the &foo() syntax
(prototypes honored, though).
