This worries me -- the bug Vlad reported is specific to pre-5.8.1
perls, caused by an unneccessary line in myldr/internals.c:

    SvSETMAGIC(GvSV(tmpgv));

But if something happens to perl 5.8.1, then it must be another bug
altogether.

As I (well, really mostly Alan Stewart) have cleaned up the environment
processing logic greatly in PAR 0.81 (and now PAR 0.82), I'm curious about
whether the heisenbug you mentioned still exists -- I tried to duplicate
it here and can no longer see it, but perhaps I didn't try hard enough. :-)

BTW, I'm very grateful for your generous donation!  Your name is on the
http://par.perl.org/?DonorsAndSponsors list now.

Thanks,
