We'll be better able to assist you if you create an issue at: https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/new In that GH issue, you won't need to supply all the 'perl -V' info.

Can you include URLs to your source code repository when filing this issue? The challenge we will face is to extract a small excerpt of code from your source code that we can use to bisect, debug and correct the problem. Any assistance you can provide will accelerate solution of the problem. > Under exactly same conditions (same machine, environment, build > instructions), there is no problem with perl-5.37.0 (or earlier).
