Re^2: Strange errors in CPAN modules when running on Windows 8.1

in thread Strange errors in CPAN modules when running on Windows 8.1

This is perl 5, version 20, subversion 2 (v5.20.2) built for MSWin32-x
+64-multi-thread
[download]

I was guessing that some regression is biting me, but from what i saw in the Leap.pm source, nothing strange stood out? $BUFF is well-declared, so why would it stop being that all of a sudden?

Also, I would hope that something as important as Win32::SerialDevice would pass any tests with any new version of perl?

$BUFF is well-declared, so why would it stop being that all of a sudden? It's still "well-declared". The warning is not that it has not been declared, but that it has not been assigned a value: `C:\>perl -wle "my $x; print $x;" Use of uninitialized value $x in print at -e line 1. C:\>perl -wle "my $x; $x = 17; print $x;" 17` [download] Cheers, Rob	[reply] [d/l]
