Invalid value for shared scalar at /usr/share/perl/5.8/Test/Builder.pm line 319.
WHOA! Somehow you got a different number of results than tests ran!
This should never happen! Please contact the author immediately!

$
$a = latin1("a");
is (1, 1, "$a");
works (as mentioned before).
So does using sid's Perl "perl5 (revision 5 version 8 subversion 7)".
Since that "Invalid value for shared scalar" seems to be tied to
threading (says google), maybe perl can be patched?
