% perl -wle 'opendir $d, "." or die; print "ok"; print ">>", fileno $d'
ok
Use of uninitialized value $d in print at -e line 1.

The error message claims that $d is uninitialized, which is incorrect.
$d contains a dirhandle. The message is generated because fileno($d)
is returning undefined.

This was fixed in perl 5.10.1, although a similar bug (#72090) is still
present.

This is a bug report for perl from mjd@​plover.com,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.36 running under perl 5.10.0.

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

% perl -wle 'opendir $d, "." or die; print "ok"; print ">>", fileno $d'
ok
Use of uninitialized value $d in print at -e line 1.

The error message claims that $d is uninitialized, which is incorrect.
$d contains a dirhandle. The message is generated because fileno($d)
is returning undefined.

[Please do not change anything below this line]
-----------------------------------------------------------------

I can confirm this is still the case in 5.12.2 and in blead.
