Package: perl
Version: 5.6.1-1
Severity: normal
Perl 5.6.1 broke libterm-stool-perl_0.25.
In Stool, an lvalue AUTOLOAD ends with a C<goto &$AUTOLOAD>, where
&$AUTOLOAD is defined at runtime as an anonymous lvalue sub. So, at
runtime, it would be fine. But Perl 5.6.1 croaks at compile time,
saying that the 'goto' isn't modifiable and is therefore illegal as
the last thing in an lvalue sub. This new compile-time error is wrong
because it's overly strict.
