Here's an example that looks up nonnumeric uids in the passwd file:

+system call will check whether it's possible to send a signal to it (that
means, to be brief, that the process is owned by the same user, or we are
the super-user). This is a useful way to check that a child process is
alive and hasn't changed its UID. See L<perlport> for notes on the
L<perlsub/"Private Variables via my()"> for details, and L<fields>,
L<attributes>, and L<Attribute::Handlers>.
-The only currently recognized C<our()> attribute is C<unique> which
-indicates that a single copy of the global is to be used by all
-interpreters should the program happen to be running in a
-multi-interpreter environment. (The default behaviour would be for
-each interpreter to have its own copy of the global.) Examples:
-
- our @EXPORT : unique = qw(foo);
- our %EXPORT_TAGS : unique = (bar => [qw(aa bb cc)]);
- our $VERSION : unique = "1.00";
-
-Note that this attribute also has the effect of making the global
-readonly when the first new interpreter is cloned (for example,
-when the first new thread is created).
-
-Multi-interpreter environments can come to being either through the
-fork() emulation on Windows platforms, or by embedding perl in a
-multi-threaded application. The C<unique> attribute does nothing in
-all other environments.
-
-Warning: the current implementation of this attribute operates on the
-typeglob associated with the variable; this means that C<our $x : unique>
-also has the effect of C<our @x : unique; our %x : unique>. This may be
-subject to change.

-Now that you understand how C<require> looks for files in the case of
-a bareword argument, there is a little extra functionality going on
-behind the scenes. Before C<require> looks for a "F<.pm>" extension,
-it will first look for a filename with a "F<.pmc>" extension. A file
-with this extension is assumed to be Perl bytecode generated by
-L<B::Bytecode|B::Bytecode>. If this file is found, and its modification
-time is newer than a coinciding "F<.pm>" non-compiled file, it will be
-loaded in place of that non-compiled file ending in a "F<.pm>" extension.

You can also insert hooks into the import facility, by putting directly
Perl code into the @INC array. There are three forms of hooks: subroutine
