SPUG: geting variables from a 'required' file

[Dan Ebert]

I am wanting to set some global variables in a required file (so I can use
different values on different servers without editing the main script
code.)  This code works fine with perl 5.6:

use strict;

our ($var1,$var2);
require 'vars.pl';

print $var1, "\t", $var2, "\n";

but not with 5.005 and if I use 'my' instead of 'our' the values of $var1
and $var2 are NULL.  Is there a way (with 5.005) to declare the variables
so this will work and 'use strict' won't complain?

Thanks!

Dan.
