This is a bug report for perl from shlomif@iglu.org.il,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.39 running under perl 5.16.0.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please describe your issue here]
pod/perldelta.pod in perl-5.16.0 reads:
my $string = "string";
my $lvalue = \substr $string, -4, 2;
print $lvalue, "\n"; # prints "ri"
$string = "bailing twine";
print $lvalue, "\n"; # prints "wi"; used to print "il"
The "$lvalue" text on the third anf fifth lines should be replaced with
"$$lvalue". Thanks to mauke on #p5p on irc.perl.org for clarifying that.
[Please do not change anything below this line]
