Maybe not enough caffeine this morning but
I'm trying to figure out how to change the line number reported
by perl errors.

I am slurping in different chunks of perl code from a file
and doing an eval on them. Its working fine when it works
but if there is a error, i print out $@ which always reports
the line number from the start of the slurped text.
Which is almost entirely not helpful.

I would like to slurp the text, prepend something that indicates
What line nukber itnshould assign to the first line,
do an eval, and afterwards, return to normal line numbers.

Thanks.
