Subject: Module calls "die" on input error
The 2.7 version of the module calls "die" if there is an error in input. The module should not be calling "die" if it fails, it should halt what it's doing and pass an error back to its caller. A module calling "die" because of input errors is an extremely poor practice which might, for example, crash a server if someone didn't know this was going to happen.
Will be resolved in 3.27.
