Nice, not having hacked much Perl in quite a while I had all but forgotten
about perlcritic.

Running it on the current version of the patchset yields mostly warnings on
string values used in the require “convutils.pm” statement.  There were however
two more interesting reports: one more open() call not using the three
parameter form and an instance of map which alters the input value.  The latter
is not causing an issue since we don’t use the input list past the map but
fixing it seems like good form.

Attached is a patch that addresses the perlcritic reports (running without any
special options).
