The above causes some versions of perl to fail, as keys expect a hash argument:
Execution of .//scripts/kernel-doc aborted due to compilation errors. Type of arg 1 to keys must be hash (not private array) at .//scripts/kernel-doc line 2714, near "@highlights) "
This is happening at linuxtv.org server, with runs perl version 5.10.1.
OK, that's not good. But I'm not quite sure what to do about it.
Perl 5.10.1 is a little over six years old. Nobody else has complained (yet) about this problem. So it might be best to "fix" this with a minimum version added to the Changes file.
Or maybe we need to revert the patch.
So I'm far from a Perl expert, so I have no clue what the minimum version would be if we were to say "5.10.1 is too old." I don't suppose anybody out there knows?
Thanks,
