This seems flawed as we'll always exit with the $ret of the last file.
Do you intend to abort on the first error, or go as far as possible?
Maybe you can use something like this:
system ... or warn "$file: $!\n"
$ret = $? unless $ret;
(This should preserve the $ret from the first process that fails with
a non-zero exit code.)

What do you think?
