Hm.  Line 110 is blank for me.  Line 85 is a comment.

Yes, more simple lack of quoting upsetting -w.

Aha.  I forgot about this.  In Config.pm, I added:

cf_email='pudge@pobox.com'

Hm, I see.  You have old versions of these.  Perhaps you should upgrade to
Paul's most recent ports (I can't remember if libnet or LWP still need
