Okay, I can reproduce something similar to this error, using your
private-and-public-decls file.  It seems to be tied to the DOS line
endings (CL+LF) -- if I strip the carriage returns from the file, I get
some more sensible results.  (Note this is with a normal Unix perl on a
mac, not directly in my windows VM.)

I'm not sure where the configuration knob is going to be which affects the
type of line endings in use, though.
