Something must have changed in PoCo::Client::HTTP 0.943 leaving the
kernel blocking even if all requests have been processed.
It occurs with a component using the (evil, I know!) run_one_timeslice()
method, namely
http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/MSCHILLI/LWP-UserAgent-POE-0.03/POE.pm
which then hangs in the test at
http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/MSCHILLI/LWP-UserAgent-POE-0.03/t/001Basic.t
What I'm seeing is that even when the only HTTP request has been
processed, the kernel reports
=== 18510 === <rc> +----- GC test for session 1-----
<rc> | total refcnt : 2
<rc> | event count : 0
<rc> | post count : 0
<rc> | child sessions: 2
<rc> | handles in use: 0
<rc> | aliases in use: 0
<rc> | extra refs : 0
<rc> | pid count : 0
<rc> +---------------------------------------------------
and then blocks on the main CORE::select() with a timeout of roughly
3600 seconds instead of terminating the main loop.
Any ideas on what might have changed recently?
