jos% perl -v

This is perl, version 5.005_02 built for i386-freebsd

>Description:

perl barfs when using the debugger because of improper quoting.

/usr/include/sys/ioctl.h contains:

  #warning "Don't #include ioctl.h in the kernel.  Include xxxio.h instead."

/usr/libdata/perl/5.00502/mach/sys/ioctl.ph contains:

  warn(""Don't #include ioctl.h in the kernel.  Include xxxio.h instead.""

Not Good.

>How-To-Repeat:

jos% cat prog
exit 0;
jos% perl -d prog

Loading DB routines from perl5db.pl version 1.0401
Emacs support available.

Enter h or `h h' for help.

>Fix:
	
Fix h2ph to properly deal with these directives by escaping single quotes and
removing the outermost quotes, if present:
