Bug #35454 for LockFile-Simple: "-warn" option doesn't work as documented

Hi, we've received the following bug report againt LockFile::Simple (tracked as http://bugs.debian.org/478040 ) It looks like LockFile::Manager doesn't care about the "-warn" attribute, which might or might not be intended but the POD in Simple.pm suggests otherwise. Thanks in advance for looking into this issue.

However, I get "WARNING: releasing 1 pending lock..." at program exit. Setting -wfunc => undef instead of -warn solves the problem, but warn is documented to suppress warnings too.
