Ah ha!  My feeble mind slowly begins to work.  It wasn't 

        while(<FILE>) 

that I got the warning about (since I never use that construct).  Instead it
was

        while($line = <FILE>)

If you put in your own assignment, you lose the automatic protection of the
bare <FILE>.

Sorry for causing confusion.
