Thanks. I've tried adding the no warnings 'recursion'; to both the example script above and to the real script (there in the smallest lexical scope available). It does not suppress the warnings in either case.

I wonder if there would be a way to simply collect and not print the warnings, perhaps with an eval. However, the attempt below still prints the same warnings as the original example script above.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath -weak;

use strict;
use warnings;

my $ent = HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath->new;
$ent->parse_file(\*DATA);

eval {
    no warnings 'recursion';
    $ent->delete;
};

if ($@) {
    print "FOO\n";
}    

exit(0);

__DATA__
<html>
<head>
<title>foo bar</title>
</head>
<body>
foo
