Weird log file entry related to use of constant

[Michael Todd Glazier <mi...@Galli-Glazier.com>]

Based on the examples in "Writing Apache Modules with Perl and C" I'm 
trying out the use of constants in a CGI program for 
Apache::Registry. At the moment the program is only running under 
Apache::PerlRun

The problem is its filling up my log file with non-fatal, but space 
consuming message.

In my program:

use constant ADMIN_EMAIL => q{<a 
href='mailto:host@blackjacklist.com'>mailto:host@blackjacklist.com</a> 
};


In error_log:

[Fri Jun  2 23:39:33 2000] reg.cgi: Constant subroutine ADMIN_EMAIL 
redefined at /usr/lib/perl5/5.00503/constant.pm line 175.


Is this just bad programming on my part and/or is it something I can 
change? I could just switch to use vars I spose... :)

Thanks!
