The reason I went to 5.8.0 was because I saw references to waitpid in the
Email archive.  Well, my problem is still here:

Fatal VMS error (status=2472) at PERLKIT:[SOURCE]VMS.C;1, line 2292 at
/dka200/rsa/agent/lib/POE/Kernel.pm line 1469.

vms.c certainly has changed!  I suspect some optimization because the line
reference made sense in 5.6.1, now it does not:    vmspipedsc.dsc$a_pointer
= tfilebuf;

The offending line in Kernel.pm is:     while ($pid = waitpid(-1, WNOHANG))
{

The VMS error status is: %SYSTEM-W-NOMOREPROC, no more processes

I guess perl is going to the well once too often?
