May be it's just late and I need to sleep over it, but consider:
map { $_ => 1 } (a..c);
map { $x = $_; "$x" => 1 } (a..c);
map { ("$_" => 1) } (a..c);
map { "$_" => 1 } (a..c);
the first three lines are fine, the fourth produces an error:
syntax error at /tmp/oops line 4, near "} ("
what's wrong with $_ stringification as the key? and it only happens without
() around the key/value pair.
Originally I planned to do:
... = map { "key_$_" => 1 } (a..c);
It seems to happen with all perls.
