Re: Should Test2 maintain $! and $@?

I didn’t consider that. I was thinking ->release would take an optional
bool flag and that’s all. But you’re right that this would not be enough
and that providing enough interface to cover all the cases makes it too
complicated to be worth it.

Heh, which implies an obvious and amusing improvement:

    { local $@; $ctx->release }

Which is *easier* than any special interface, too. So, scrap that.
