+Your process datasize is limited to $maxdsiz MB, which is (sadly) not
+always enough to fully optimize some source code files of Perl,
+at least 256 MB seems to be necessary as of Perl 5.8.0.  I'll try to
+use a lower optimization level for those parts.  You could either try
+using your shell's ulimit/limit/limits command to raise your datasize
+(assuming the system-wide hard resource limits allow you to go higher),
+or if you can't go higher and if you are a sysadmin, and you *do* want
+the full optimization, you can tune the 'max_per_proc_data_size'
+kernel parameter: see man sysconfigtab, and man sys_attrs_proc.
