"would give" the same number if Xref was ever fixed.

edit

To be clear: line numbers in Perl will never be 100% exact, because statements can span several lines, and because sometimes multiple statements are optimized into a single one.

But there is no reason (AFAIK) why a variable should be skipped from a report or the declaration being reported after the first use, like Xref is doing now.

No, without change. When they both give a line number for an op, it matches. The reason is they get they info from exactly the same place.

> No, without change.

I've already proven that this is not happening now. And Dave already confirmed it.
