At least not an insult...

If foo is called with your package followed by the original stack
then maybe you could just to the entire job in foo, leaving the 
handler to return only OK:


    sub foo
    {
        # do all of the work here
    }


    sub handler
    {
        OK
    }

Short of that, I think you are stuck.

The only way to constrain $foo would be something like:

    {
        my $foo = '';

        sub foo
        {
            ...
        }

        sub handler
        {
        }
    }

and at least $foo is scoped reasonably.
