When some of my Win32::GUI programs exit, I get the above error
message.  Trapping the error (via %SIG) gives no useful information,
as caller() reports that the error occurred at "main.pl, line 0".

Searching the web, I found a tantalizing almost-solution in this thread:
http://old.nabble.com/Crash-with-perl-5.10-and-Win32%3A%3AGUI-1.6-td16523383.html
  [ http://goo.gl/UhcgE ]

In this thread, one Jeremy White discovers the problem, apparently
solves it, then writes:

To which Robert May replies,

> Thanks for the report and taking the time to look into this.  I've
> not had a chance to look at what you've done yet, but should get
> some time in the next couple of weeks.

And that's the end of it.  This thread is from May 2008; the last
update of Win32::GUI was in February 2008.  I feel somewhat like the
person who stumbled upon the famous note in the margin of Pierre de
Fermat's book.

What is the solution to this puzzle?  And, will there ever be an update
to Win32::GUI?
