This gets my vote. I'm happy with %^H being preserved when a string eval is compiled; I expect that 'use feature' pragma will break without it. But I consider it a bug that the contents of %^H are being stringified as soon as the string eval has been compiled. This would get my vote as well. > * The Variable::Magic part of B::Hooks::EndOfScope can be replaced by > tieing %^H to add it a destructor.

If it's convenient, could you provide an example? I'm happy with the idea that %^H can be tied. I presume it could then trigger a destructor at the end of lexical scope. I guess that means that string eval actually copies %^H into an entirely new structure, rather than increasing the ref-count of the old one?
