(F) The '!' is allowed in pack() and unpack() only after certain types.
See L<perlfunc/pack>.
+=item # cannot take a count
+
+(F) You had an unpack template indicating a counted-length string,
+but you have also specified an explicit size for the string.
+See L<perlfunc/pack>.
+
+=item # must be followed by a, A or Z
+
+(F) You had an unpack template indicating a counted-length string,
+which must be followed by one of the letters a, A or Z
+to indicate what sort of string is to be unpacked.
+See L<perlfunc/pack>.
+
+=item # must be followed by a*, A* or Z*
+
+(F) You had an pack template indicating a counted-length string,
+Currently the only things that can have their length counted are a*, A* or Z*.
+See L<perlfunc/pack>.
+
+=item # must follow a numeric type
+
+(F) You had an unpack template that contained a '#',
+but this did not follow some numeric unpack specification.
+See L<perlfunc/pack>.
+
=item % may only be used in unpack
(F) You can't pack a string by supplying a checksum, because the
checksumming process loses information, and you can't go the other
way. See L<perlfunc/unpack>.
+=item Repeat count in pack overflows
+
+(F) You can't specify a repeat count so large that it overflows
+your signed integers. See L<perlfunc/pack>.
+
+=item Repeat count in unpack overflows
+
+(F) You can't specify a repeat count so large that it overflows
+your signed integers. See L<perlfunc/unpack>.
+
=item /%s/: Unrecognized escape \\%c passed through
(W) You used a backslash-character combination which is not recognized
could not be guaranteed (due to the errors), and since subsequent code
likely depends on its correct operation, Perl just gave up.
+=item Binary number > 0b11111111111111111111111111111111 non-portable
+
+(W) The binary number you specified is larger than 2**32-1
+(4294967295) and therefore non-portable between systems. See
+L<perlport> for more on portability concerns.
+
=item bind() on closed fd
(W) You tried to do a bind on a closed socket. Did you forget to check
inlining. See L<perlsub/"Constant Functions"> for commentary and
workarounds.
+=item constant(%s): %%^H is not localized
+
+(F) When setting compile-time-lexicalized hash %^H one should set the
+corresponding bit of $^H as well.
+
+=item constant(%s): %s
+
+(F) Compile-time-substitutions (such as overloaded constants and
+character names) were not correctly set up.
+
=item Copy method did not return a reference
(F) The method which overloads "=" is buggy. See L<overload/Copy Constructor>.
(D) Really old Perl let you omit the % on hash names in some spots. This
is now heavily deprecated.
+=item Hexadecimal number > 0xffffffff non-portable
+
+(W) The hexadecimal number you specified is larger than 2**32-1
+(4294967295) and therefore non-portable between systems. See
+L<perlport> for more on portability concerns.
+
=item Identifier too long
(F) Perl limits identifiers (names for variables, functions, etc.) to
=item Illegal hexadecimal digit %s ignored
-(W) You may have tried to use a character other than 0 - 9 or A - F in a
-hexadecimal number. Interpretation of the hexadecimal number stopped
+(W) You may have tried to use a character other than 0 - 9 or A - F, a - f
+in a hexadecimal number. Interpretation of the hexadecimal number stopped
before the illegal character.
=item Illegal switch in PERL5OPT: %s
=item Integer overflow in %s number
-(S) The literal hexadecimal, octal or binary number you have specified
-is too big for your architecture. On a 32-bit architecture the largest
-literal hex, octal or binary number representable without overflow
-is 0xFFFFFFFF, 037777777777, or 0b11111111111111111111111111111111
-respectively. Note that Perl transparently promotes decimal literals
-to a floating point representation internally--subject to loss of
-precision errors in subsequent operations--so this limit usually
-doesn't apply to decimal literals.
+(W) The hexadecimal, octal or binary number you have specified either
+as a literal in your code or as a scalar is too big for your
+architecture, and has been converted to a floating point number. On a
+32-bit architecture the largest hexadecimal, octal or binary number
+representable without overflow is 0xFFFFFFFF, 037777777777, or
+0b11111111111111111111111111111111 respectively. Note that Perl
+transparently promotes all numbers to a floating point representation
+internally--subject to loss of precision errors in subsequent
+operations.
=item Internal inconsistency in tracking vforks
=item invalid [] range in regexp
(F) The range specified in a character class had a minimum character
-greater than the maximum character. See L<perlre>.
+greater than the maximum character, or the range didn't start/end with
+a literal character. See L<perlre>.
=item Invalid conversion in %s: "%s"
mentioned with the $ in Perl, unlike in the shells, where it can vary from
one line to the next.
+=item Missing %sbrace%s on \C{}
+
+(F) Wrong syntax of character name literal C<\C{charname}> within
+double-quotish context.
+
=item Missing comma after first argument to %s function
(F) While certain functions allow you to specify a filehandle or an
Perl are likely to eliminate this arbitrary limitation. In the meantime,
try using scientific notation (e.g. "1e6" instead of "1_000_000").
+=item Octal number > 037777777777 non-portable
+
+(W) The octal number you specified is larger than 2**32-1 (4294967295)
+and therefore non-portable between systems. See L<perlport> for more
+on portability concerns.
+
+See also L<perlport> for writing portable code.
+
=item Odd number of elements in hash assignment
(S) You specified an odd number of elements to initialize a hash, which
(F) A sort comparison subroutine may not return a list value with more
or less than one element. See L<perlfunc/sort>.
+=item split /^/ better written as split /^/m
+
+(W) Implicit translation of /^/ to mean /^/m in split is deprecated.
+
=item Split loop
(P) The split was looping infinitely. (Obviously, a split shouldn't iterate
(F) There are no byte-swapping functions for a machine with this byte order.
+=item Unknown open() mode '%s'
+
+(F) The second argument of 3-arguments open is not one from the list
+of C<L<lt>>, C<L<gt>>, C<E<gt>E<gt>>, C<+L<lt>>, C<+L<gt>>,
+C<+E<gt>E<gt>>, C<-|>, C<|-> of possible open() modes.
+
=item Unknown process %x sent message to prime_env_iter: %s
(P) An error peculiar to VMS. Perl was reading values for %ENV before
