First of all, this is the wrong list for the question. The "dev" list is 
for developing modperl itself. Use the users list 
modp...@perl.apache.org instead.

And secondly, the modperl users isn't the right auditorium either for 
this particular question since it's not modperl-related:

$ perl -e 'sub x(){} x(1)'
Too many arguments for main::x at -e line 1, at end of line
Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors.

Take your copy of "Programming Perl" and reread the part about 
prototypes.
