Thanks, Dave, for the detective work! I confirm that your example produces the warning on v5.22.2 as well. (I'm not quite sure from your description whether the failure method on bleadperl is the same as that on v5.22.2. An assert is a fatal error (in C, anyway), whereas the message I'm seeing does not halt execution; if I add another statement after the end of your code sample, it does get executed.)
I'm happy to submit a bug report, but since you know much more about what's going on under the hood, you're probably a better contact person. If you don't have the time or inclination, however, I'll do it.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
