Re: I wonder if there are any supported distro with 5.8.8 perl (not 5.8.9)?

I know RHEL supports 5.8.9 till Y2017

How interesting. All my RHEL5 boxes use 5.8.8. Are you sure about your assertion there?

You are right. I was sure they upgraded to 5.8.9 this year (as part of CentOS 5.9 release), but now I see it still contain 5.8.8 Also, the code I posted in first post works right on CentOS (and fails in perlbrew perl)	[reply]
