[OT] perl file handle question

It's relatively easy to write a function gives this sort of interface
my $fh = open_or_die($filename);
where the function will die with the filename and error message if the file
can't be opened.
However, what I'd then like to do is
close_or_die($fh);
and if the close fails, have the file *name* printed in the error message.
Is there a good clean way to have something that mostly behaves as a file
handle, but has the file name squirrelled away in it somehow?
