-warn "Legacy library @{[(caller(0))[6]]} will be removed from the Perl core distribution in the next major release. Please install it from the CPAN distribution Perl4::CoreLibs. It is being used at @{[(caller)[1]]}, line @{[(caller)[2]]}.\n";

-# From: asherman@fmrco.com (Aaron Sherman)

-# This library is no longer being maintained, and is included for backward
-# compatibility with Perl 4 programs which may require it.
-# This legacy library is deprecated and will be removed in a future
-# release of perl.
-#
-# In particular, this should not be used as an example of modern Perl
-# programming techniques.

-# Suggested alternative: Sys::Hostname
