Others have pointed out the syntactic problem here, but I would like to ask about the semantics. I would expect the exact opposite ordering. There doesn't seem any point in specifiying core to override vendor, which overrides site. In what circumstances is that useful? I can understand the other way around where the vendor provides something better than standard perl, or you yourself have installed or written something better than either.
