warnings.pm is a new package introduced in a recent version of perl. AFAIK
it acts just like -w.

I just tried doing the global.asa thing, but I realized another problem.
Recently, I installed a new version of perl on my system (upgraded 5.00503
to 5.6). Something went wrong though; Apache::ASP is still using the old
version of perl. If I run /usr/bin/perl, /usr/local/bin/perl, or a CGI
script, the $] (version) variable evaluates to 5.6. But inside ASP
scripts, the version is 5.00503 (use warnings doesn't work in 5.00503).
Would you happen to know how to find out the pathname of the perl
executable that Apache::ASP is using? I found a file called
/usr/bin/perl5.00503, but relinking that to perl 5.6 had no effect.
Also, does ASP have a directive for turning on -w?
