SYNOPSIS

perl -d -MOd=Backend[,OPTIONS] foo.pl

Od::CODE(0x154c5a0)((eval 9)[lib/Od.pm:33]:25):
25:                 &$compile();
DB<1> s
B::C::CODE(0x12c0aa0)(lib/B/C.pm:3163):

DESCRIPTION

This module is a debugging replacement to O, the Perl Compiler frontend.

It delays the start of the B compiler compile function from the CHECK block to the INIT block, so that the Perl debugger can be started there.
