I expected this to DWIM today:

too few arguments passed (0) - 1 params expected
...and for understandable (if not good) reasons: the closure inside
the string expects a parameter ($^name), which it isn't getting.
I just want to make sure that I got the problem right. Would
my $cl = { "$^name upcased becomes {$^OUTER::name.uc}" };
say $cl("larry")
work? The idea is that the embedded closure refers to the strings
$^name. And now the dwimmyness shall make that implicit, right?
