Incomplete examples (Score:2)
This is not working with incomplete sample code, is it? Code that does not include the necessary (but trivial)
use Foo::Barlines, or object instantiation (Foo::Bar->new)?Just because code is incomplete, doesn't mean that it's wrong.
And adding redundant code is not making examples clearer.

It's certainly not perfect for all things and that's unfortunate. I don't know of any other way around that. I've thought of various tricks (s/use/require/), but that breaks other things. In short, it won't work for everyone, but if it does, it's a nice check.
