Comment 2 for bug 886966

the sample program uses the -w switch to enforce warnings not only inside the authors code, but also for all 3rd party modules. This is not the way it should be done, please use "use warnings" instead to specify a warnings policy for your own code only.

Steffen Ullrich, maintainer IO::Socket::SSL

And please please report problems upstream/to the authors instead of letting them rot here for years.
