You mean "no autodie" without a preceding "use autodie"? Anything but
an effective no-op would surprise me. Plain "no strict;" or "no warnings;"
don't do anything either, and that doesn't seem to be a problem.

If I were to use 'autodie', I would like it to fatalise system() as well.
Will autodie have to option to cherry pick which functions are fatal, just
like Fatal does? In that case, the few people that use exotic system() and
still want to use autodie could always opt to do
{
no autodie 'system';
system {...} whatever;
}
