(My apologies if you get this twice. My first run of sends had a bug.) This is automatically generated email about problems in a man page for which you appear to be responsible. If you are not the right person or list, tell me and I will attempt to correct my database.
See http://catb.org/~esr/doclifter/problems.html for details on how and why these patches were generated. Feel free to email me with any questions. Problems with DynaLoader.3pm: 1.
