-=item Variable length character upgraded in print
-
-(W utf8) Perl met a variable length character that is not marked with
-Unicode in the output, but the output layer (like the C<:utf8> layer) does
-not expect that. (A variable length character is defined by having
-different memory representations between the native encoding (ISO-8859-1
-or single-byte EBCDIC) and perl's Unicode encoding (UTF-8 or UTF-EBCDIC).)
-Perl assumes any strings that are not marked as Unicode to be encoded in
-the native encoding, and implicitly converts (upgrades) them into perl's
-Unicode encoding on print. If you had intended to treat them as Unicode
-strings, you might have failed to cope with them properly.
