The perlfunc documentation on C<use> is not crystal clear on
  use Module VERSION
v.
  use Module VERSION LIST
v.
  use Module VERSION ()

So I submit the following patch​:

*** pod/perlfunc.pod 2000/02/21 12​:06​:12 1.1
--- pod/perlfunc.pod 2000/02/21 18​:06​:13 1.3

  =item use Module VERSION LIST
 
+ =item use Module VERSION

  =item use VERSION
 
  Imports some semantics into the current package from the named module,

*** 5184,5191 ****
  C<use> will call the VERSION method in class Module with the given
  version as an argument. The default VERSION method, inherited from
  the Universal class, croaks if the given version is larger than the
! value of the variable C<$Module​::VERSION>. (Note that there is not a
! comma after VERSION!)
 
  Because this is a wide-open interface, pragmas (compiler directives)
  are also implemented this way. Currently implemented pragmas are​:

! C<import>). (Note that there is not a comma after VERSION!)
