Re^3: unexpected modify hash in a distance with grep { $

Nope, it happens because of the aliasing of the hash value inside grep, but I'm not sure how.

Interesting effect. I see your output with plain perl v5.22.2 (from 2016) on Linux x86-64 and with Strawberry v5.14.2 (from 2011) on Windows 64 bit. So this seems to be an old, unsolved problem.

Maybe I should file a bug on that? I will report bug for Debian...	[reply]

I think yes, you can do this. But link to this thread. Me personally I'd wait the weekend, monks tend to find related tickets or route causes pretty fast. But that's a philosophical question, probably p5p rather prefers closing multiple reports.
