[Orca-dev] Build 522 perl version issue

[David Michaels]

I'm working on the patch to SourceFile.pm that will enable it to parse 
both Unix and Windows data files, and I've hit a snag.

Build 522 has a minmum requirement of perl 5.005_03, per line 30 of the 
orca perl script.

However, line 61 says "no warnings;" to make the load of Data::Dumper be 
quiet, then it has "use warnings;" command.  Since the "warnings" pragma 
doesn't exist in 5.005_03, this causes Orca to fail if using perl 
5.00503 (default perl on Solaris 9, though 5.6.1 is also available with 
a standard OS install; on Solaris 8, there is only 5.005_03).

Any thoughts on the best way to fix?
