<quote src="perlop">
The "=>" operator is a synonym for the comma, but forces any word to
its left to be interpreted as a string (as of 5.001).

And AFAICS that isn't true:
$ perl -MData::Dumper -wle'
%n = (00 => Integer, 01 => Floating, 10 => Char, 11 => Double);
print Dumper(\%n)
'
$VAR1 = {
'11' => 'Double',
'1' => 'Floating',
'0' => 'Integer',
'10' => 'Char'
};
So I filed a bug-report about perlop.
