You can skip the array assignment and just do:

foreach ( split "\n", $scalar ) {
 ...
}

I predict a reply that uses map()... though I think that using a map
isn't really another solution, but just an alternative to the for
loop.

map {stuff}, split "\n", $scalar;

But I think the answer is basically as you said. Use split.
Then again, you ought to be able to open a pipe and print the scalar
to the pipe and use the:
  while <HANDLE>
syntax. I'm not sure how exactly the newlines would get treated in
that scenario...
