title: How do I suppress UTF-8 warnings in Perl?
body: <p>Due to various reasons I'm getting the error messages <code>Malformed UTF-8 character</code> and 
  <code>Wide character in print</code> from a legacy script.</p>
  
  <p>I would like to suppress/disable those two warnings so that they are not written to <code>STDERR</code>.</p>
  
  <p>How do I do that?</p>
