[perl #70836] nested heredoc gets bad error message

# New Ticket Created by Zefram

This is a bug report for perl from zefram [at] fysh,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.36 running under perl 5.10.0.


-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please enter your report here]

Found this behaviour while investigating the current -Dmad failure:

$ perl -e $'print <<E1;\n@{[ <<E2 ]}\nE1'
Can't find string terminator "
E2" anywhere before EOF at -e line 1.

Not a great error message. The prefix newline comes from the inner
workings of scan_heredoc: it's correct for it to be in PL_tokenbuf,
but it shouldn't go through to the error message. This patch fixes it:

Re: [perl #70836] nested heredoc gets bad error message [In reply to]

that patch will probably break the heredoc with no lf at end of file
patches. Which are totally stalled. Please feel free to take them
over.
