First, that's not true for me (see below), but more importantly, you have
it completely backwards. Warning about your error is not a bug. Not warning
you about your error is a bug.



>perl -we"use POSIX; use Cwd qw( getcwd );"
Subroutine main::getcwd redefined at
C:/Progs/perl5162-ap1602/lib/Exporter.pm line 66.
 at -e line 1.

>perl -we"use Cwd qw( getcwd ); use POSIX;"
Subroutine main::getcwd redefined at -e line 1.
