I have the bad feeling that your Perl is heavily broken. Those lines are
actually assigning values to the variables if they are undefined. And your
wanring talks about the '==' operator which doesn't occur here (but maybe
internally in the Perl guts).

Did you compile Perl youself? And did you maybe use some aggressive
optimizations like -O3? Perl 5.8.1 is out maybe you should have a try with
that one...

Erm... huh? So you set the parameter -s to the default value "mail" but
removed the line which assigns the value of $log_facility?? And you while
you were using the -s parameter you hacked the source instead of setting
--syslog-socket=inet?

Yeah, it seems like you do weird things to your software ;-)
