After examining the source code I suppose that there is no warning generated.
You can try the following code for displaying information to your customers:

[calcn]
my $out = '';
for (@$Items) {
	if ($_->{mv_max_over}) {
		$out .= "Item $_->{code} exceeds maximum quantity $_->{mv_max_quantity}<br>";
		delete $_->{mv_max_over};
	}
}
return $out;
[/calcn]
