in thread use of useless void in context

split {</syscode>}i, $syscode, 2;

According to the documentation, "If "/" is the delimiter then the initial m is optional" so once you choose a different delimiter I think you need the m. Therefore the code should be

split m{</syscode>}i, $syscode, 2;

I hope this is of interest.

    Since split always treats its first argument as a regular expression anyway you could also use a string: 

    split '(?i:</syscode>)', $syscode, 2;
