Perhaps he could try reverting to v1.67 (the version I have that works, albeit on a win32 build).
He might also try the following and see if it completes clean (and post the output if not):
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use POSIX qw[ _exit ];
use Time::HiRes qw[ usleep ];
use threads ( stack_size => 4096 );
use threads::shared;
$|++;
use HTTP::Request;
use LWP::UserAgent;
my $started :shared = 0;
my $ended :shared = 0;
my $monitor = async {
printf "\rStarted: $started Ended: $ended\t"
and uleep 100 while $ended < 500;
print "\nAll done";
};
my $TEST_URL = "http://www.blairhippo.com/";
threads->create( 'execute_request', $TEST_URL )->detach for 1 ..500;
$monitor->join;
_exit( 0 );
sub execute_request {
{ lock $started; ++$started; }
my $url = shift;
my $request = HTTP::Request -> new ('HEAD', $url);
my $agent = LWP::UserAgent -> new();
my $response = $agent -> request($request);
{ lock $ended; ++$ended; }
}
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
