 Another control parameter B<--warn-mismatched-arg-cutoff-count=n>, or
-B<-wmacc=n>, can be used to avoid warnings when the identified number of args
-passed to a sub is less than the number of args expected by the sub, and both
-are less than or equal to B<n>.  This number B<n> is the number of
-args from the point of view of the sub definition, so an object passed
-with an arrow operator counts as one arg.  Many programs will need to
-use a small integer value for B<n> to pass without errors. The default
-value is B<n=4>, but this should be reduced if possible.  The minimum
-possible value of B<n> for a program can be determined by running the
-dump version, B<-dma>, on that program.
