For reference, the two proposed solutions are: * to not import anything from IO::File * to prototype the local O_BINARY properly I think about a third one - avoid redefining O_BINARY at all and use the imported one from IO::File. Hmm. Looking at the code in XBase::Base.pm, it looks certainly weird to import O_BINARY from Fcntl on mswin, and redefine it otherwise. Importing always looks allright to me. Oh, and since it will come from IO::File anyway, just dropping the BEGIN code should solve it (also satisfying author's comment about hating it). The bug is really annoying - a warning in every program using XBase. Bumping severity. -- dam JabberID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
