Hey,

Sorry for the slight delay in getting back to you about this! Seems like
your report fell through the cracks. If you are still around, are you
still experiencing this error with newer versions of Perl? If so, could
you provide a way to duplicate the error?


(Seeing how this ticket has been silent for over a decade, I suggest
leaving it open for 30 more days, then closing it if we don't hear back
from the OP or get other complains.)
