3 test failures with automake-1.12.0 and perl-5.16.0 |

Hi,
aclocal8, acsilent and unused test cases all fail if I have the newly
released perl-5.16.0 installed.
The error appears to be because of a change in Perl, which now ends up
outputting the following to stderr:
main::scan_file() called too early to check prototype
at /sources/automake-1.12/aclocal line 642.
I've attached the logs. If you require any further information, just
let me know.
Thanks,
Matt.
