I'll leave it to others to point out a good tutorial, since the ones I can name are in books. However, just FYI, this is a quote from the changes document of Perl 5.8.0:

The current user-visible implementation of pseudo-
hashes (the weird use of the first array element) is
deprecated starting from Perl 5.8.0 and will be
removed in Perl 5.10.0, and the feature will be imple-
mented differently.  Not only is the current interface
rather ugly, but the current implementation slows down
normal array and hash use quite noticeably. The
"fields" pragma interface will remain available.  The
restricted hashes interface is expected to be the
replacement interface (see Hash::Util).  If your
existing programs depends on the underlying implemen-
tation, consider using Class::PseudoHash from CPAN.
