Subject: mistaken use of $[

To: bug-Devel-PPPort [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Zefram <zefram [...] fysh.org>
Devel-PPPort/parts/inc/magic and Devel-PPPort/t/magic.t both contain the line ok($[ < 5.009 || $@ eq ''); This is obviously intending to examine the Perl version number, which is $]. $[ is the array index offset, which is effectively always zero. -zefram

Again, you're right. This will be fixed in the next release of Devel::PPPort. Marcus
