Ok, I should have tried this before posting:

#!/bin/bash
perl -e 'exit(1);'
if [ $? -eq 1 ]; then
        perl -e 'print "script can start again\n";'
fi

So if I call exit I can restart the script. ? There's no chance of the module 
not being re-initialised? Should I use a 1 second sleep in-between?
