Nope. For those who don't know perltidy is the Perl's code uber- 
formatter. Whatever obscure in-house style your Perl is written in  
perltidy can probably has options enough to format any code in that  
way - and the defaults are pretty good too.

That said - I come across a lot less Ruby that /needs/ to be  
radically reformatted before it's legible ;-)
