+=item "%s" variable %s masks earlier declaration in same %s
+
+(W) A "my" or "our" variable has been redeclared in the current scope or statement,
+effectively eliminating all access to the previous instance. This is almost
+always a typographical error. Note that the earlier variable will still exist
+until the end of the scope or until all closure referents to it are
+destroyed.
+
=item "my sub" not yet implemented
(F) Lexically scoped subroutines are not yet implemented. Don't try that
to try to declare one with a package qualifier on the front. Use local()
if you want to localize a package variable.

=item "no" not allowed in expression
(F) The "no" keyword is recognized and executed at compile time, and returns
no useful value. See L<perlmod>.
+=item "our" variable %s redeclared
+
+(W) You seem to have already declared the same global once before in the
+current lexical scope.

=item "use" not allowed in expression
(F) The "use" keyword is recognized and executed at compile time, and returns
(F) You wrote C<require E<lt>fileE<gt>> when you should have written
C<require 'file'>.

(W) You tried to do an accept on a closed socket. Did you forget to check

L<perlport> for more on portability concerns.
-=item bind() on closed socket
+=item bind() on closed socket %s
(W) You tried to do a bind on a closed socket. Did you forget to check
the return value of your socket() call? See L<perlfunc/bind>.
(P) An error peculiar to VMS. The process is suffering from exhausted quotas
or other plumbing problems.
-=item Can't declare %s in my
+=item Can't declare class for non-scalar %s in "%s"
-(F) Only scalar, array, and hash variables may be declared as lexical variables.
-They must have ordinary identifiers as names.
+(S) Currently, only scalar variables can declared with a specific class
+qualifier in a "my" or "our" declaration. The semantics may be extended
+for other types of variables in future.
+
+=item Can't declare %s in "%s"
+
+(F) Only scalar, array, and hash variables may be declared as "my" or
+"our" variables. They must have ordinary identifiers as names.

the return value of your socket() call? See L<perlfunc/connect>.

inlining. See L<perlsub/"Constant Functions"> for commentary and
workarounds.

-(S) You undefined a subroutine which had previously been eligible for
+(W) You undefined a subroutine which had previously been eligible for
inlining. See L<perlsub/"Constant Functions"> for commentary and
workarounds.
(W) You probably referred to an imported subroutine &FOO as $FOO or some such.
+=item Did you mean "local" instead of "our"?
+
+(W) Remember that "our" does not localize the declared global variable.
+You have declared it again in the same lexical scope, which seems superfluous.
+
=item Did you mean $ or @ instead of %?
(W) You probably said %hash{$key} when you meant $hash{$key} or @hash{@keys}.

that happens to be missing. So you have to put either the backslash or
the name.
+=item flock() on closed filehandle %s
+
+(W) The filehandle you're attempting to flock() got itself closed some
+time before now. Check your logic flow. flock() operates on filehandles.
+Are you attempting to call flock() on a dirhandle by the same name?
+
=item Format %s redefined
(W) You redefined a format. To suppress this warning, say
because if it did, it'd feel morally obligated to return every hostname
on the Internet.
-=item get%sname() on closed socket
+=item get%sname() on closed socket %s
(W) You tried to get a socket or peer socket name on a closed socket.
Did you forget to check the return value of your socket() call?
=item Global symbol "%s" requires explicit package name
(F) You've said "use strict vars", which indicates that all variables
-must either be lexically scoped (using "my"), or explicitly qualified to

-(F) Something other than a comma or whitespace was seen between the
+(F) Something other than a colon or whitespace was seen between the
elements of an attribute list. If the previous attribute
had a parenthesised parameter list, perhaps that list was terminated
too soon. See L<attributes>.
(F) While under the C<use filetest> pragma, switching the real and
effective uids or gids failed.

and found a 'E<gt>' or a 'E<gt>E<gt>' on the command line, but can't find the
name of the file to which to write data destined for stdout.
+=item No package name allowed for variable %s in "our"
+
+(F) Fully qualified variable names are not allowed in "our" declarations,
+because that doesn't make much sense under existing semantics. Such
+syntax is reserved for future extensions.

=item No Perl script found in input
(F) You called C<perl -x>, but no line was found in the file beginning
=item Odd number of elements in hash assignment
-(S) You specified an odd number of elements to initialize a hash, which
+(W) You specified an odd number of elements to initialize a hash, which
is odd, because hashes come in key/value pairs.

-Remember that "my" and "local" bind closer than comma.
+Remember that "my", "our" and "local" bind closer than comma.
=item Perl %3.3f required--this is only version %s, stopped
(W) A nearby syntax error was probably caused by a missing semicolon,
or possibly some other missing operator, such as a comma.
-=item send() on closed socket
+=item send() on closed socket %s
(W) The socket you're sending to got itself closed sometime before now.
Check your logic flow.
(F) You don't have System V shared memory IPC on your system.

(W) You tried to do a shutdown on a closed socket. Seems a bit superfluous.

probably not what you want. (If it IS what you want, put an & in front.)

(W) You tried to get or set a socket option on a closed socket.
Did you forget to check the return value of your socket() call?
