Funny you should ask that ;-) I was just looking at a function like this.

This patch makes File::Find use a new warning category
(via warnings::register) for its warning messages, so
it's possible to disable them (by "no warnings 'File::Find'")
without disabling all warnings.

way to go.
This warning causes the d_attribut symbol being incorrectly
figured by Configure : hence the compilation failures.
So I can compile bleadperl by configuring it with -Dd_attribut.
Any reason why d_attribut shouldn't be always set if gccversion
is non empty ?

I'm a bit worried by the fact that arbitrary regular expressions

So I think either one of those solutions must be chosen :
(a) only allow things that match /(\w|,)+/ after -A (or something)
(b) or disallow -A in PERL5OPT. It's currently allowed.

If I look at the recent smoke reports for 5.6.2, I see that Solaris and *BSD
