Hmm, I don't know what I originally thought, but it seems that I cannot
catch the error message using an END block ($@ is undef there). (Boy I had
to grep through the whole perl documentation to find a description of what
END really does).

So it seems I have to settle for the suboptimal (but in many cases
working) current solution (my module should work with 5.004).

Thanks anyway!
