In POSIX, improve the diagnostic for the "use $method" instead.
In the error message, name the POSIX function that was called, as well as the suggested replacement method. This rephrasing was in the patch supplied by Aristotle Pagaltzis, but I have retained the existing POSIX use of :: when describing the method, because given two less than great choices, I'm inclined to favour retaining the status quo and one change over two changes.
