I've found more information about what's happening here. On every line where I use an external module, I get a report on that module's BEGIN block. This happens for the 'use strict' I have at the beginning of each module, as well as several other modules which I've excluded from the report (and those do not appear in the main report listing).

Is this normal behavior? If not, can anyone help me explain why it might be happening, or more importantly how to make it not happen?

BTW, I'm using Devel::Cover 0.55 and Perl 5.8.5 on Solaris 8.

Thanks again, Steve
