I ran some tests on Perl 5.14, which works well on 5.12.2.

I got this warning on a closure: Variable "$color" is not available at /.../FindingsParser.pm line 1763.

The code isn't pretty, but it doesn't do anything too abnormal.

sub make_csv_format {
  my $me      = shift;
  my $color   = shift                 if @_;

  my $quote_item = sub {
    # ...
    # Remove ugly kludge with prefixed color information:
    $item =~ s/^#[\dA-F]{6}//i        unless $color;
    # ...
  }; # <------ This is line with warning.
  my $quote_row  = sub {
    my $items = shift;
    return join(",", map { $quote_item->($_) } @$items) . "\n";
  };

  # ...
}

This might theoretically be Perl 5.14 (or the perlbrew install?) -- with a problem when one closure calls another, or something. But to be realistic, it is me. :-) I don't get warnings from other closures.
