For DTL-Fast, the test file t/xs/count_lines.t has the equivalent of the
following in it:

    use utf8;
    my $s = <<EOF;
    ... five bytes with values \xfa\xfc\xfd\xfe\xff ...
    EOF

where the bytes making up the heredoc string aren't valid utf8. So in this
case it seems that perl is correctly flagging up illegal input in the
src file.

I haven't looked at that one.
