Running pp with both the -u and -x options fails. It appears that some of the text files under the unicore directory are being executed by Module::ScanDeps.  See code and results below.

The "used once" warnings appear to be from Module::ScanDeps when it processes utf8_heavy.pl, and are harmless, but I have not looked into where the text files are executed.

Tested on Strawberry perl 5.16.3 and 5.22.1.

Regards,
Shawn.



C:\some_folder\x>pp -u -e "print 'blort'"
