+(F) A C<my>, C<our> or C<state> keyword was used with the exception variable in
+a C<catch> block:
+
+    try { ... }
+    catch (my $e) { ... }
+    # or catch (our $e) { ... }
+    # or catch (state $e) { ... }
+
+This is not valid syntax. C<catch> takes a bare variable name, which is
+automatically lexically declared.
