I tested using the following test case:
PERL5OPT="-Mstrict -Mwarnings" perldoc -f time
When you first mentioned this in the CB, I had access to perl 5.10.x (RHEL/CentOS/Fedora) and 5.14.x (Cywgin on MSWin), both with as-packaged perl versions. A short time later, I was able to test against a Fedora system with perlbrew, and got the following results:
| Perl Version | Errors? (Y/n) |
| 5.6.2 | Y |
| 5.8.9 | n |
| 5.10.1 | n |
| 5.12.5 | Y |
| 5.14.4 | Y |
| 5.16.3 | n |
| 5.18.4 | n |
| 5.19.6 | n |
| 5.20.1 | n |
Hope that helps.

Note: The initial results mentioned were consistent with the results presented in the table.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
