The following program
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use XML::Simple;
XMLin('<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?><root><elem><![CDATA[]]></elem></root>');
produces a warning
Use of uninitialized value $val in pattern match (m//) at
/System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.10.0/XML/Simple.pm line 1023.
If the empty CDATA is removed, the warning also disappears.
