$* is no longer supported at /usr/bin/latex2html line 10588.

Same message for
perl -e 'print $*;'

I suspect that, in this rare instance,
perl actually means what it says... :>

perldoc perldiag says:
      $* is no longer supported
           (S deprecated, syntax) The special variable $*, deprecated in older
           perls, has been removed as of 5.9.0 and is no longer supported. You
           should use the "//m" and "//s" regexp modifiers instead.

I no longer have a current latex2html installed,
but grepping a 2002 version shows many comments
that "MRO: replaced $* by /m", but still a
few blocks wrapped with:
10502:    $* = 1;                       # Multiline matching ON
10514:    $* = 0;                       # Multiline matching OFF

Hope that helps...
