Someone made a similar suggestion, but it seems as if you are
redefining the sub in the file in which it is being called instead of
using it from it's current module(?).

sub{...} creates a new anonymous sub. It can't redefine any existing
subs because to do that, you would need to use the name (or a ref to)
an existing sub, which being anonymous this ones doesn't have.

Ok - I can see the rationale behind this. In fact, I tried it, and it
worked. However, I got the oddest response message I've ever seen:

Attempt to free unreferenced scalar: SV 0xafc2db8, Perl interpreter:
0xaa069a0 at <file> <line>

What version of Perl are you using? I've seen things like that in
some of the early 5.8.x perls that went away in the some of the later
ones.
