Any idea what this means? I want Getoptions to not itself generate warning/error output even if I call it with incorrect arguments. This looks like internal stuff.

 GetOptions (
   'help|?|h' => \&show_options,
   'verbose!' => \$verbose, 'v' => \$verbose,
   'L=s' => \@linkfiles,
   'RC=s' => $RCfile,
   'fixtarget!' => $fixtarget,
   'midlopts=s' => $midlopts
   ) or die;

produces 3 warnings on line 303 and three on line 322. 
Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at ../LIB\Getopt\Lon
+g.pm (autosplit into ..\lib\auto\Getopt\Long\GetOp
