* fix a perlop fix from debian: http://bugs.debian.org/514814
The original said C<< <I<filehandle>> >> The italic is probably meant for "filehandle", which is a stand-in for a concrete filehandle. The italic should not apply to the syntax for the line input operator. The fix turned it inside out and brought back the ugly interior sequences: I< C< E<lt>filehandleE<gt> > > It's much better without worrying about the italic face.
