-(F) It used to be that Perl would try to guess whether you wanted an
-array interpolated or a literal @. It did this when the string was
-first used at runtime. Now strings are parsed at compile time, and
-ambiguous instances of @ must be disambiguated, either by prepending a
-backslash to indicate a literal, or by declaring (or using) the array
-within the program before the string (lexically). (I<Someday it will
-simply assume that an unbackslashed @ interpolates an array.>)
