Hmm, why is that different? In 5.14 at least it makes no difference.
Both: binmode(STDOUT, ":utf8");
and: binmode STDOUT,':encoding(UTF-8)';
suppress the "Wide character..." warning. but neither suppresses
the "Active code page: 65001" output.
You could however do something like this to portably suppress that
output too:
use File::Spec;
...
my $null = File::Spec->devnull();
system("chcp 65001 2>$null");

Just a guess because I don't know what chcp is all about...
but it might be informational rather than an actual warning.
