This is a bug report for perl from perlbug@plan9.de,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.39 running under perl 5.18.1.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please describe your issue here]
The perlrun documentation for -M/-m says:
Note that the "=" form removes the distinction between -m and -M.
I don't think this is correct. The distinction between -m and -M is that
one doesn't call import and the other does. While = can make -m call
import, there doesn't seem to be a way to get the effect of -mX with
-MX=..., i.e. -M always results in import being called.
This is consistent with the documentation for "=": the split... expansion
is never an explicit empty list as required by use to get the effect of
"-m".
That also means that, if I was just too dense to figure it out and there
IS a way to get no important from -M, then the description of the "="
expansion is wrong.
[Please do not change anything below this line]
