This came up again on 2010:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.perl.perl5.porters/88252

I also just got it on a cpantesters report, which is what made me find
this bug:
http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/1c38ed62-6c43-1014-8e25-a8ec223f278b

So it looks like this is still an issue. I haven't tried the suggested
workaround yet, but neither of the two affected modules (threads and
Scope::Escape) use it, so perhaps something else has superseded it.
