Rethinking »no VERSION«

Hi @,

with the recent (>= 5.11.0) perl releases, the C<no VERSION;> syntax
became partially useless for VERSION > 5.011. C<use VERSION;> now
enables strictures and so does C<no>. As a consequence this breaks code
like this:

        % bleadperl -we 'no 6; $c = "foo"'
        Global symbol "$c" requires explicit package name at -e line 1.
        Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors.

So, what do we want to achieve with this syntax? I think, it's not
widely used, but it should just be something like

        C<no VERSION;> stops the compilation process if VERSION >= $^V.

Maybe this sentence could be added to the »perldoc -f no« documentation
(»opposite of use« is quite confusing).


Thanks, Frank
