Subject: Perl::Critic builder tries to use an English capability that isn't in its declared version
package Perl::Critic::Module::Build; use 5.006001; ... use English qw< $OS_ERROR $EXECUTABLE_NAME -no_match_vars >; ^ ---------------------------------------------------| The two lines above don't match... (at least, -no_match_vars is not documented as an import that works for English until 5.008001. Don't know if this is actually a bug, or what.

Interesting. You're right: English didn't support -no_match_vars in 5.6.x; it looks like the first one that did was the one included in 5.7.3. Given that it doesn't break things and it only slows down "ancient" perls, I'm not inclined to do anything about it because fixing it would require not using English.
