in thread split loop error

It looks like a perfectly legitimate split statement either way to me, and it did not fail on my Linux version (at least with the simple input string  "abs <def> ddd <www>"). What input are you giving it?

This is perl, v5.8.0 built for i686-linux-thread-multi
Linux xxx.yyy.com 2.4.8-26mdk

    Thanks for checking this out tall man.

    I tried it with your test case and it fails too. (That is it fails when using $line but not $_). My test cases were about the same as yours...

    Details on the linux system are...

    Linux xxx.yyy.edu 2.4.18-19.8.0smp #1 SMP Thu Dec 12 04:36:25 EST 2002 + i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
    And perl...
    This is perl, v5.8.0 built for i386-linux-thread-multi


    So could this be a bug? in i386-linux-thread-multi?

    Thanks!
