Greetings,
Would one of you gurus take a look at this?
$ fink list bioperl
Illegal character in prototype for bytes::length : _ at /opt/local/lib/ 
perl5/5.10.0/bytes.pm line 22.
Illegal character in prototype for bytes::chr : _ at /opt/local/lib/ 
perl5/5.10.0/bytes.pm line 23.
Illegal character in prototype for bytes::ord : _ at /opt/local/lib/ 
perl5/5.10.0/bytes.pm line 24.

  i   bioperl-pm586                   1.5.1-2                 Perl  
module for biology

I changed:
sub length (_);
sub chr (_);
sub ord (_);

to:
sub length ();
sub chr ();
sub ord ();

and the warning goes away. Is this worth pursuing in the source code?

thanks,
Tom
