+B<Note that support for 5.005-style threading remains experimental
+and practically unsupported.>
The following tests are known to fail due to fundamental problems in
the 5.005 threading implementation. These are not new failures--Perl
5.005_0x has the same bugs, but didn't have these tests.
- lib/autouse.t 4
- t/lib/thr5005.t 19-20
+ ext/List/Util/t/first 2
+ lib/autouse 4
+ ext/Thread/thr5005 19-20

+These failures are unlikely to get fixed.
