FYI the similar failure on strawberry perl was
http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/6883938

That's a very odd bug. There seems to be an extra BEGIN called with a
line number of 0. Has anyone any idea whay that might be?

(One thing that strikes me looking at the perl configs is that the gcc
use is a little old, 3.[34], in both. A long shot I know.)

Anyway, could you email me the output of:

  NYTPROF=trace=9:stmts=0 perl -d:NYTProf -x t/42-global.t

Hopefully that'll show me where the be...@0 is coming from.
Thanks!

I've not seen that failure before. What's the @INC on that perl?

Ok. I've not seen any failures on OS X (which is what I build on).

Understood. I wish I could find out what the magic config is to
reproduce the extra BEGIN call.

I'll try some experimental perl builds at some point, but it might not
be soon.
