Even more interesting, this variant *doesn't* work:

regression=# create or replace function trustedsort()
returns int
as $$
my @arr = qw(5 4 3 2 1);
my @sorted = sort { "$a" <=> "$b" } @arr;
elog(NOTICE, join(' ', @sorted));
return 1;
$$
language 'plperl';
CREATE FUNCTION
regression=# select trustedsort();
NOTICE:  5 4 3 2 1
 trustedsort
-------------
           1
(1 row)

Seems like it's the interpolation into a string that is failing.
