Thanks, now it works.

No, I didn't redefine the quote character. I have disabled preprocessing of
the whole configuration file. The problem is that variables defined during
this kind of preprocessing aren't available later for use with the "."
command. Therefore I moved all intitialization to init functions that are
called from StartFunction. This works very good and AFAICS I don't need
preprocessing of the whole config file anymore.
Some comments:
1. "." is very cool. Now that everything seems to work fine, please add it
to the FAQ. And, as said before, include one or two simple examples that
show that "." is usable with minimal Perl knowledge (eg. for adding
variables).
2. It seems that with "." it is only possible to embed one Perl command in
%{ ... }% at a time (i.e. not several Perl commands separated by ';').
That should be made clear in the FAQ.
