Carp with multiple arguments
Subject: Carp with multiple arguments (and lack of tests)
carp/croak/confess are documented as similar to warn/die, but whereas
warn/die print multiple arguments, carp/croak/confess print only the
first. Assuming that this is a bug rather than a feature, the following
patch corrects it. (And if it _is_ a feature, the pod needs updating
instead, to explain it away.)
Trying to be polite, I thought I'd update the Carp tests to cover this
case. But I couldn't find any Carp tests ... I'll have a go
at rectifying this lacuna. But not till tomorrow.
