There appears to be a problem with Perl 4.0 when you combine warnings
with debugging. If I take the following script:
print "Hello World\n";
and call it foo.pl, then on my sparcstation I get this:
138:shere-khan:Strauss> perl -wd foo.pl
Loading DB routines from perldb.pl 4.0 91/03/20
Enter h for help.
Use of uninitialized variable at (eval) line 1.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
and on my Sun3s I get this:
102:antares:Strauss> perl -wd foo.pl
Loading DB routines from perldb.pl 4.0 91/03/20
Enter h for help.
Use of uninitialized variable at (eval) line 1.
Use of uninitialized variable at /usr/aero/lib/perl/perldb.pl line 72.
main'(foo.pl:2): print "Hello World\n";
Possible use of == on string value at /usr/aero/lib/perl/perldb.pl line 78.
