I don't know precisely when those changes occurred (xsubpp reports version 1.9508 in both cases), or if they're the cause of the problem, but it might be a good place to start. Other than that, it would might help if you could post some minimal example (either as an XS file or Inline::C script) that demonstrates the problem. Cheers, Rob
