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.
