in thread Is your Perl broken? Bug help needed.

Hey, I'm the poor sod using Woody that first got bit by this problem.

My results are, in a nutshell, that all of my Perl 5.6.1's have this error (3 different boxes) but my Perl 5.005 does not. And it is an error, correct? There is no way this could be anything but a bug?

I don't have Perl 5.6.0 installed anywhere. If anybody does, I'm curious to know if you have the error.

    Perl 5.6.0 on RH 7.1 doesn't display the error... i.e. 
    % perl -le 'print "($1) " while "this_is_broken_" =~ /(.*?)_/gs'
(this) 
(is) 
(broken) 

% perl -v
This is perl, v5.6.0 built for i386-linux
