A better patch could be to add the line marked with a "+" below:

        for $subref ($Global::SOAP_Control,
                                 $Vend::Cfg->{SOAP_Control}) {
+               next unless $subref;
                @args = @_;

I haven't tested that patch, but it looks as if it'll fix the problem
you described.
