NAME

NOTE

       If the programmers used a delayed "require", those files won't show up.	Furthermore, this doesn't show all possible files that get opened,
       just those that those up in %INC.  Most systems have a way to trace system calls.  You can use this to find the real answer.  First, get a
       baseline with no modules loaded.

	   $ strace perl -e 1 2>&1 | perl -nle '/^open("(.*?)".* = [^-]/ && print $1'
	   /etc/ld.so.cache
	   /lib/libnsl.so.1
	   /lib/libdb.so.2
	   /lib/libdl.so.2
	   /lib/libm.so.6
	   /lib/libc.so.6
	   /lib/libcrypt.so.1
	   /dev/null

	   $ strace perl -e 1 2>&1 | grep -c '^open.*= [^-]'
	   8

       Now add module loads and see what you get:

	   $ strace perl -MIO::Socket -e 1 2>&1 | grep -c '^open.*= [^-]'
	   24

	   $ strace perl -MTk -e 1 2>&1 | grep -c '^open.*= [^-]'
	   35
