in reply to Useless use of a constant (ict) in void context

Ehm ... the code you've posted doesn't show any use strict so I can only speculate that something may be malformed in the "strict" part.

Unicode sideeffects ?

    As I said (and the error says) the suspect line is line 3 in Test::NoWarnings and it does contain use strict. I've pasted it below:

    package Test::NoWarnings;

use 5.006;
use strict;
use warnings;

      Interestingly, line 3 is use 5.006;.

        If I delete the use 5.006; so it is now as below, it now gives:

        package Test::NoWarnings;


use strict;
use warnings;
use Carp                      ();

        At the risk of sounding offensive (not intended). If you typed your code the way you typed your question:

        strawberry-perl-5.14.2.1-3 2bit-portable/perl/vendor
        (note the 2bit-portable).

        I'm inclined to go with Rolf (LanX), and suggest it was probably a typo.

        Again. No offense intended.
