Hi SRM,
The Debian Perl Group was asked, if #855894 could be fixed as well for
stretch, since when "syswrite" and "utf8" are used together with Perl
5.24 warnings are issued. The proposed debdiff is attached.
Thanks for considering, let me know if it looks okay for you to
include this in the upcoming point release for stretch.
Regards,
Salvatore
