Given simple script like this "hello.pl":
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w print "Hello\, world!\n";
Then "perlcc hello.pl" emits repeating lines similar to:
Use of uninitialized value at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.00502/sun4-solaris/B.pm lin e 194.
Interesting points are: - Compile and executable apparently otherwise okay; - Still has -w functionality - Doesn't happen if $^W=1 is used - Doesn't happen with other options like "-a" - Still happens if combined with other options like "-aw" - Exactly repeatable w/ same version of Perl on SunOS 5.5.1 (Solaris 2.5.1)

HOPE YOU ARE ALL VERY PROUD OF YOUR CONTINUING CONTRIBUTION TO MANKIND!
Umm\, but not so proud as to not work on my minor nitpickin' bug!
