How can this not be a bug?

    $ perl -E 'no warnings; use re "/g"; say "gosh that was ok, then, eh?"'
    Unknown regular expression flag "g" at -e line 1
    gosh that was ok, then, eh?

    $ perl -E 'use warnings FATAL => "all"; use re "/g"; say "gosh that was ok, then, eh?"'
    Unknown regular expression flag "g" at -e line 1
    gosh that was ok, then, eh?

    $ perl -E 'use warnings FATAL => "all"; use re "/WTF"; say "gosh that was ok, then, eh?"'
    Unknown regular expression flag "W" at -e line 1
    gosh that was ok, then, eh?

I can't disable them.  
I can't trap them.  
They're stupid noise.

Yes, I want a fatal.  

I certainly want to be *able* to have a fatal.

I think they should be a fatal.

They most definitely shouldn't be noise.
