This is a bug report for perl from pm.20.browseruk@xoxy.net,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.39 running under perl 5.10.1.


-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please describe your issue here]

As is, the following code cause a segfault:

#! perl -slw
use strict;
use threads;

binmode STDIN, ':encoding(UTF-8)';
#binmode STDIN, ':raw';

async{ sleep 10; }->detach;

my $in = <STDIN>;

Use binmode with any :encoding(*) on STDIN and it traps.
Comment out either the uncommented binmode or the async lines and it no  
longer traps.
Comment out the encoding binmode and uncomment the :raw binmode and it no  
longer traps.
Comment out both binmodes and run with -CI on the command line and it no  
longer traps.

Hence the conclusion that it is the Unicode IOlayers that are thread  
hostile.

Also known to occur on linux systems.
