Have you considered what potentially happens to your sub if you strike a symbolic link-link-link-link-link-link? You need a -l test in there to avoid following sym links or you will quite probably end up going infinite. Also while -w is generally fine warnings get triggered if you have a recursive sub that recurses more than 100 levels deep if I recall correctly.
