There's BEGIN, END, etc, but they operate on a different level, they're not functions. OO is traditionally magic name based (con-/destructors, finalizers, etc) in most languages, so it's not particularly a choice on Perl's part. tie() is indeed magic name based. Overlading, on the other hand, is not.
The examples I showed (GET_PROPERTY, SET_PROPERTY, INIT_INSTANCE,
FINALIZE_INSTANCE and especialy do_<signal_name>) are all from current
Glib::Object::Subclass, contrary to your claim.
