Subject: rename "Probable precendence problem" diagnostic to "Bareword found
X-Git-Url: http://git.shadowcat.co.uk/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=34d09196f6a006314d7ea49a091a30ce5ee08bff;p=p5sagit%2Fp5-mst-13.2.git

rename "Probable precendence problem" diagnostic to "Bareword found
in conditional" to better reflect the class of error (as suggested
by Larry)
