Subject: 'err' in @B::Keywords::Barewords
Why 'err' is in @B::Keywords::Barewords? It isn't a real perl keyword or reserved word - at least I'm unable to find where this documented. Also it isn't listed on http://learn.perl.org/docs/keywords.html. I'm often use sub err {} and perlcritic each time complain about it because of @B::Keywords::Barewords which it uses internally. And Perl::Critic::Policy::Subroutines::ProhibitBuiltinHomonyms isn't configurable (which makes sense as long as it data source is coorect).
You are absolutely right. It was there from the very beginning, and I cannot remember any perl defining err as bareword or keyword. Fixed in 1.14 -- Reini Urban
