I just had my server upgraded, and in the process a newer version of curl installed, which promptly broke my script.
Basically I get a lot of messages telling me "Use of inherited AUTOLOAD for non-method Curl::easy::CURLOPT_HEADER() is deprecated.." How can I fix this? The relevant code and complete errors are below.

<start my code>
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_HEADER, 1);
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_POST, 1);
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $datapost);
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_MUTE, 1);
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30);

open HEAD, ">head.out";
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_WRITEHEADER, *HEAD);

open BODY, ">body.out";
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_FILE,*BODY);

$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_URL, $url);

my $header_called=0;
sub header_callback {

 $header_called=1; return length($_[0])
 };

$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION, \&header_callback);

my $body_called=0;
my $chunk;
my $auth_response;
sub body_callback {
 my ($chunk,$handle)=@_;

 $auth_response .= $chunk;
 $body_called++;
 return length($chunk); # OK
}

my $body_ref=\&body_callback;
$curl->setopt(CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, $body_ref);
</end my code>
