in thread while loop not working

addendum: 'use warnings;' would have shown it.

DB<27> use warnings; my $x;my$x "my" variable $x masks earlier declaration in same scope at

    It wouldn't as the variables have a different scope:
    perl -we 'my $x; while($x) { my $x }'

    map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
      Oops ... you are right! :)
