#2556: Deprecated perl stuff in ghc-split
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
Reporter: guest | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new

Architecture: Unknown | Os: Linux
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
On Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex (adm64):
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:19282~>perl --version
[ 4:22PM]
This is perl, v5.10.0 built for x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi
Every single compiled module generates a warning:
"$* is no longer supported at /usr/lib/ghc-6.8.2/ghc-split line 39."
The line mentioned is:
$* = 1; # multi-line matches are OK
----
This deprecation warning is very annoying and obscures output, especially
on packages with hundreds of modules such as XMonad or Darcs. A fix would
be nice; presumably Perl would not have deprecated something without a
easy fix being available.
