$cleanup = bless {}, class : impatient {
method DESTROY { ... }
};
That'll probably do it, at the expense of extra runtime block exit
overhead until the object dies. If you just want a block exit action,
then:
add_block_exit_action(\&foo);
or something similar will do it. (Though we could add new syntax for it if
you really want... :-)
