[Edinburgh-pm] perl one-liner problem

I was trying the Perl one liner below but it complains about an *unrecognized
switch*. despite this the value is passed into the code.  I was trying to
avoid a full script file with a getopts and its baggage.
perl -s -e "print $oldage;" -oldage=abc

Anyone got an idea what will work.
