Hi there,

Have a look at these two different implementations. IMPL2 works somehow. The
problem I am facing is that the glob <$pat> does not return any value in

Use strictures and warnings, and you'll probably see that <$pat> is being interpreted as an attempt to read from a file. Use glob($pat) instead.

The Switch module evidently installs a source filter that has some strange effects on Perl code. I advise avoiding it.
