(X) You can't allocate more than 64K on an MS-DOS machine.
-=item Allocation too large
-
-(F) You can't allocate more than 2^31+"small amount" bytes.

=item Applying %s to %s will act on scalar(%s)
(W) The pattern match (//), substitution (s///), and transliteration (tr///)
you thought. Normally it's pretty easy to disambiguate it by supplying
a missing quote, operator, parenthesis pair or declaration.
+=item Ambiguous call resolved as CORE::%s(), qualify as such or use &
+
+(W) A subroutine you have declared has the same name as a Perl keyword,
+and you have used the name without qualification for calling one or the
+other. Perl decided to call the builtin because the subroutine is
+not imported.
+
+To force interpretation as a subroutine call, either put an ampersand
+before the subroutine name, or qualify the name with its package.
+Alternatively, you can import the subroutine (or pretend that it's
+imported with the C<use subs> pragma).
+
+To silently interpret it as the Perl operator, use the C<CORE::> prefix
+on the operator (e.g. C<CORE::log($x)>) or by declaring the subroutine
+to be an object method (see L<attrs>).
+
=item Args must match #! line
(F) The setuid emulator requires that the arguments Perl was invoked
(P) One of the internal hash routines was passed a null HV pointer.
+=item Bad index while coercing array into hash
+
+(F) The index looked up in the hash found as the 0'th element of a
+pseudo-hash is not legal. Index values must be at 1 or greater.
+See L<perlref>.
+
=item Bad name after %s::
(F) You started to name a symbol by using a package prefix, and then didn't

object reference or package name contains an expression that returns
-neither an object reference nor a package name. (Perhaps it's null?)
+a defined value which is neither an object reference nor a package name.
+Something like this will reproduce the error:
+
+ $BADREF = 42;
+ process $BADREF 1,2,3;
+ $BADREF->process(1,2,3);
+
+=item Can't call method "%s" on an undefined value
+
+(F) You used the syntax of a method call, but the slot filled by the
+object reference or package name contains an undefined value.
Something like this will reproduce the error:
$BADREF = undef;
(F) Certain types of SVs, in particular real symbol table entries
(typeglobs), can't be forced to stop being what they are.
+=item Can't coerce array into hash
+
+(F) You used an array where a hash was expected, but the array has no
+information on how to map from keys to array indices. You can do that
+only with arrays that have a hash reference at index 0.
+
=item Can't create pipe mailbox
(P) An error peculiar to VMS. The process is suffering from exhausted quotas
localize a package variable of the same name, qualify it with the
package name.
+=item Can't localize pseudo-hash element
+
+(F) You said something like C<local $ar-E<gt>{'key'}>, where $ar is
+a reference to a pseudo-hash. That hasn't been implemented yet, but
+you can get a similar effect by localizing the corresponding array
+element directly -- C<local $ar-E<gt>[$ar-E<gt>[0]{'key'}]>.
+
=item Can't locate auto/%s.al in @INC
(F) A function (or method) was called in a package which allows autoload,
of upgradability. Upgrading to undef indicates an error in the
code calling sv_upgrade.
+=item Can't use %%! because Errno.pm is not available
+
+(F) The first time the %! hash is used, perl automatically loads the
+Errno.pm module. The Errno module is expected to tie the %! hash to
+provide symbolic names for C<$!> errno values.
+
=item Can't use "my %s" in sort comparison
(F) The global variables $a and $b are reserved for sort comparisons.
subscript. But to the left of the brackets was an expression that
didn't look like an array reference, or anything else subscriptable.
-=item Can't write to temp file for B<-e>: %s
-
-(F) The write routine failed for some reason while trying to process
-a B<-e> switch. Maybe your /tmp partition is full, or clobbered.
-
=item Can't x= to read-only value
(F) You tried to repeat a constant value (often the undefined value) with
an assignment operator, which implies modifying the value itself.
Perhaps you need to copy the value to a temporary, and repeat that.
-=item Cannot create temporary file "%s"
-
-(F) A temporary file could not created for some reason while trying to
-process a B<-e> switch. Maybe your temporary file partition is full,
-or over-protected, or clobbered.
-
=item Cannot find an opnumber for "%s"
(F) A string of a form C<CORE::word> was given to prototype(), but
there is no builtin with the name C<word>.
-=item Cannot generate temporary filename
-
-(F) While trying to process a B<-e> switch, a filename for a temporary
-file could not be generated. Maybe your temporary file partition is
-full, or over-protected, or clobbered.

=item Cannot resolve method `%s' overloading `%s' in package `%s'
(F|P) Error resolving overloading specified by a method name (as
Perl uses this generic message when none of the errors that it encountered
were severe enough to halt compilation immediately.
+=item Complex regular subexpression recursion limit (%d) exceeded
+
+(W) The regular expression engine uses recursion in complex situations
+where back-tracking is required. Recursion depth is limited to 32766,
+or perhaps less in architectures where the stack cannot grow
+arbitrarily. ("Simple" and "medium" situations are handled without
+recursion and are not subject to a limit.) Try shortening the string
+under examination; looping in Perl code (e.g. with C<while>) rather
+than in the regular expression engine; or rewriting the regular
+expression so that it is simpler or backtracks less. (See L<perlbook>
+for information on I<Mastering Regular Expressions>.)
+
=item connect() on closed fd
(W) You tried to do a connect on a closed socket. Did you forget to check
passed an invalid file specification to Perl, or you've found a
case the conversion routines don't handle. Drat.
+=item %s: Eval-group in insecure regular expression
+
+(F) Perl detected tainted data when trying to compile a regular expression
+that contains the C<(?{ ... })> zero-width assertion, which is unsafe.
+See L<perlre/(?{ code })>, and L<perlsec>.
+
+=item %s: Eval-group not allowed, use re 'eval'
+
+(F) A regular expression contained the C<(?{ ... })> zero-width assertion,
+but that construct is only allowed when the C<use re 'eval'> pragma is
+in effect. See L<perlre/(?{ code })>.
+
+=item %s: Eval-group not allowed at run time
+
+(F) Perl tried to compile a regular expression containing the C<(?{ ... })>
+zero-width assertion at run time, as it would when the pattern contains
+interpolated values. Since that is a security risk, it is not allowed.
+If you insist, you may still do this by explicitly building the pattern
+from an interpolated string at run time and using that in an eval().
+See L<perlre/(?{ code })>.
+
=item Excessively long <> operator
(F) The contents of a <> operator may not exceed the maximum size of a
script if C<$ENV{PATH}> contains a directory that is writable by the world.
See L<perlsec>.
-=item Insecure PATH
+=item Insecure $ENV{%s} while running %s
(F) You can't use system(), exec(), or a piped open in a setuid or
-setgid script if C<$ENV{PATH}> is derived from data supplied (or
+setgid script if any of C<$ENV{PATH}>, C<$ENV{IFS}>, C<$ENV{CDPATH}>,
+C<$ENV{ENV}> or C<$ENV{BASH_ENV}> are derived from data supplied (or
potentially supplied) by the user. The script must set the path to a
known value, using trustworthy data. See L<perlsec>.
Another way is to assign to a substr() that's off the end of the string.
-=item Modification of noncreatable array value attempted, subscript %d
+=item Modification of non-creatable array value attempted, subscript %d
(F) You tried to make an array value spring into existence, and the
subscript was probably negative, even counting from end of the array
backwards.
-=item Modification of noncreatable hash value attempted, subscript "%s"
+=item Modification of non-creatable hash value attempted, subscript "%s"
(F) You tried to make a hash value spring into existence, and it couldn't
be created for some peculiar reason.
(F) The argument to B<-I> must follow the B<-I> immediately with no
intervening space.
+=item No such array field
+
+(F) You tried to access an array as a hash, but the field name used is
+not defined. The hash at index 0 should map all valid field names to
+array indices for that to work.
+
+=item No such field "%s" in variable %s of type %s
+
+(F) You tried to access a field of a typed variable where the type
+does not know about the field name. The field names are looked up in
+the %FIELDS hash in the type package at compile time. The %FIELDS hash
+is usually set up with the 'fields' pragma.
+
=item No such pipe open
(P) An error peculiar to VMS. The internal routine my_pclose() tried to
(S) An internal warning that the grammar is screwed up.
-=item Operation `%s': no method found,%s
+=item Operation `%s': no method found, %s
(F) An attempt was made to perform an overloaded operation for which
no handler was defined. While some handlers can be autogenerated in

(X|F) The malloc() function returned 0, indicating there was insufficient
remaining memory (or virtual memory) to satisfy the request.
an emergency pool after die()ing with this message. In this case the
error is trappable I<once>.
-=item Out of memory during request for %s
+=item Out of memory during "large" request for %s
(F) The malloc() function returned 0, indicating there was insufficient
remaining memory (or virtual memory) to satisfy the request. However,
the request was judged large enough (compile-time default is 64K), so
a possibility to shut down by trapping this error is granted.
+=item Out of memory during ridiculously large request
+
+(F) You can't allocate more than 2^31+"small amount" bytes. This error
+is most likely to be caused by a typo in the Perl program. e.g., C<$arr[time]>
+instead of C<$arr[$time]>.
+
=item page overflow
(W) A single call to write() produced more lines than can fit on a page.
(S) The subroutine being declared or defined had previously been declared
or defined with a different function prototype.
+=item Range iterator outside integer range
+
+(F) One (or both) of the numeric arguments to the range operator ".."
+are outside the range which can be represented by integers internally.
+One possible workaround is to force Perl to use magical string
+increment by prepending "0" to your numbers.
+
=item Read on closed filehandle E<lt>%sE<gt>
(W) The filehandle you're reading from got itself closed sometime before now.
desired output is compiled into Perl, which entails some overhead,
which is why it's currently left out of your copy.
-=item Recursive inheritance detected
+=item Recursive inheritance detected in package '%s'
(F) More than 100 levels of inheritance were used. Probably indicates
an unintended loop in your inheritance hierarchy.
-=item Reference found where even-sized list expected
-
-(W) You gave a single reference where Perl was expecting a list with
-an even number of elements (for assignment to a hash). This
-usually means that you used the anon hash constructor when you meant
-to use parens. In any case, a hash requires key/value B<pairs>.
+=item Recursive inheritance detected while looking for method '%s' in package '%s'
- %hash = { one => 1, two => 2, }; # WRONG
- %hash = [ qw/ an anon array / ]; # WRONG
- %hash = ( one => 1, two => 2, ); # right
- %hash = qw( one 1 two 2 ); # also fine
+(F) More than 100 levels of inheritance were encountered while invoking a
+method. Probably indicates an unintended loop in your inheritance hierarchy.
=item Reference found where even-sized list expected
=item umask: argument is missing initial 0
-(W) A umask of 222 is incorrect. It should be 0222, because octal literals
-always start with 0 in Perl, as in C.
+(W) A umask of 222 is incorrect. It should be 0222, because octal
+literals always start with 0 in Perl, as in C.
+
+=item umask not implemented
+
+(F) Your machine doesn't implement the umask function and you tried
+to use it to restrict permissions for yourself (EXPR & 0700).
=item Unable to create sub named "%s"
should remove AutoLoader from @ISA and change C<use AutoLoader;> to
C<use AutoLoader 'AUTOLOAD';>.
+=item Use of reserved word "%s" is deprecated
+
+(D) The indicated bareword is a reserved word. Future versions of perl
+may use it as a keyword, so you're better off either explicitly quoting
+the word in a manner appropriate for its context of use, or using a
+different name altogether. The warning can be suppressed for subroutine
+names by either adding a C<&> prefix, or using a package qualifier,
+e.g. C<&our()>, or C<Foo::our()>.
+
=item Use of %s is deprecated
(D) The construct indicated is no longer recommended for use, generally
interpreted as a "" or a 0, but maybe it was a mistake. To suppress this
warning assign an initial value to your variables.
+=item Useless use of "re" pragma
+
+(W) You did C<use re;> without any arguments. That isn't very useful.
+
=item Useless use of %s in void context
(W) You did something without a side effect in a context that does nothing
