I found in http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/perl4/cook/ch08_06.htm that clearerr() may be used to clear the eof condition. In linux "man 3 clearerr" also says "The function clearerr() clears the end-of-file and error indicators for the stream pointed to by stream."

It would be nice if the IO::Handle documentation also mentions this fact.
