Description

As reported by Tinderbox under Perl 5.6.0:

Running /usr/bin/perl -cw -I/home/dave/tinderbox/mozilla/webtools/bugzilla/
importxml.pl; Results:
importxml.pl has compilable perl syntax.
Warnings: 
Use of uninitialized value in string eq at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.0/lib.pm
        line 19 (#1)
    
    (W uninitialized) An undefined value was used as if it were already defined.  
It was
    interpreted as a "" or a 0, but maybe it was a mistake.  To suppress this
    warning assign a defined value to your variables.

Comment 2

[Dave Miller [:justdave]]

the attached patch places the setting of the $::path variable inside a begin 
block so that $::path is valid when "use lib" is called at compile time.
