Oh? That's news to me. I was under the impression the problem only existed on Win32.
Could you show me how to reproduce the problem on *nix?
So I don't think your doc is correct to say: "All of this happens on Windows only and if the version of the Perl executor is known to have the problem."
Well, to my knowledge it was... I've never had any problems with detaching threads.
In any case, for my test using join instead of detach does the trick just fine.
Yes, but some people prefer to be able to use detach() at one point in the future, hence my repair module. I thought it would just be needed on Win32. If it is needed on more platforms, I would like to know so that I can fix either the documentation and the internal OS checks.
