Re: [PATCH lib/lib.pm 5.005_63] Removing use of vars.pm

[Larry Wall <larry@wall.org>]

I see you usually did

    our($FOO, $BAR, $BAZ);
    $FOO = "foo";
    $BAR = "bar";
    $BAZ = "baz";

and sometimes you did

    our $FOO = "foo";
    our $BAR = "bar";
    our $BAZ = "baz";

I think I have a slight preference for the latter because it encourages
people to initialize.  I presume your usual preference for the former
can be explained by ease of editing (and possible unediting :-).

I almost never use C<my> with a list either.  It's possible I'm ashamed
of the parentheses despite their pragmatic necessity.
