use sigtrap 'handler' => &sig_handler, KILL;
&sig_handler{
#your clean up code you want executed
}
sigtrap can be found on cpan, there are more ways to use it... Documented
there.

Subject: catch kill -9 from unix command prompt
Is there a way for my program to execute a few lines of code before dying
when it is sent a kill -9 from a unix shell? The book I have says no, I
don't want to ignore the signal, just some clean up. Thanks. -Ken
