Hello, AFAICT, this warning and the failing test in 07-stats.t are not related. The warning is caused by the fact that Perl_do_open() is called with only 7 args where it expects more (I presume) while the failing test comes from the fact that the ps_recv field returned by stats() is not correctly set. -- Close the world, txEn eht nepO.

The warning is still present but as I said it's most probably harmless. The test suite have been completely rewritten and corrected.
