Not certain what it's telling me either, other than some necessary 
changes that mojo requires for declarations where things are - and you 
are the first person to report this - there is no difference between the 
two branches in the function that does the usdb.v1 creation.

Having now looked at the code, however, I do wonder what I was on when I 
wrote this.   But having said that it does work for me, as it stands,  
on my reasonably up to date versions of perl (5,30 and .32).

Until that update comes out, you can try an rm 
/spider/local_data/usdb.v1.new before the create_usdb.pl. The next 
update will do that in the code.
