No. There were no "* xx" lines in tmon.out, so I added one and got

C:\test>dprofpp -g Date::Manip::ParseDate Modification of non-creatable array value attempted, subscript -1 at d +:\perl\bin/dprofpp.bat line 692, <fh> line 664.

Looking at the POD for Dprof, there is this line

Lines starting with +, - and * mark entering and exit of subroutines by ids, and goto &subr.

Which I interpret to mean that lines starting with * indicate a trnasfere of control using goto &subr. A curosry grep through the sources of the modules (strict, Date::Manip etc.) that are used by the test program didn't turn up any gotos.

I think you have the source of the problem. You could try replace each occurance of "* xx" with

+ xx - xx

which should amount to the same thing, but you would need to consult the author/maintainer for a confirmation (and fix). HTH.
