    I don't know, it can't be for retro compatibility reasons because use VERSION is about stating that the code isn't retro compatible anyway. And there is a command switch to enable warnings (-w) but none to enable strict (though -Mstrict would work), I don't know if this is connected.

      OK thank you. Would be interesting to know the background, though.
