Daniel, You hit the STATUS on its head !!!! What follows after the status, is another test case starting with the following line.
STATUS: ^L 4.1 (-) madmad: Testing reliable nuts. I did it my way...the morons way, I chucked the file into a scalar variable, reset the $RS ($\) so that $ in the reg exp matched the end of the file.

Would it be possible to think of the page break being prior to it (and therefore not connected to the STATUS line)? Daniel T.
