 The implementation was tweaked to work around several limitations of vanilla C<perl> pragmas : it's thread safe, and does not suffer from a C<perl 5.8.x-5.10.0> bug that causes all pragmas to propagate into C<require>d scopes.
 
-C<meth $obj> (no semicolon) at the end of a file won't be seen as an indirect object syntax, although it will as soon as there is another token before the end (as in C<meth $obj;> or C<meth $obj 1>).
+Before C<perl> 5.12, C<meth $obj> (no semicolon) at the end of a file is not seen as an indirect object syntax, although it is as soon as there is another token before the end (as in C<meth $obj;> or C<meth $obj 1>).
+If you use C<perl> 5.12 or greater, those constructs are correctly reported.
 
 With 5.8 perls, the pragma does not propagate into C<eval STRING>.
 This is due to a shortcoming in the way perl handles the hints hash, which is addressed in perl 5.10.
